There’s always something going on at FarmED, as our Animals into Arable course found out yesterday 😅! The farm walk was briefly interrupting by the Winter wheat going in, but seeing #agricultureinaction is what it’s all about 🚜🌱. P.1

Most of my working day at the moment. I’d be unable to run a flock without @RappaFencing equipment. #shepherding #rappa #electricfencing #farming

When the @RappaFencing wire just reaches the end, when the dog behaves, when the sheep behave and when the bike doesn’t breakdown whilst picking up. Well that’s been a good day. Excuse the dog at the end for posing like a tart 🤦🏼‍♂️ #farming #shepherding #realrurallife

Beautiful fresh morning for moving fences. Can’t wait to fit our ATV - @RappaFencing unit, but for now this will do 🤦🏼‍♀️. After scanning on Friday ewes carrying singles are off to some rough grazing until lambing in mid-March. #mobgrazing @NuffieldFarming

It's arrived, I don't usually sit down and read the instructions, but a complimentary packet of shortbread biscuits shouted out eat me with a coffee, so might as well read the instructions at the same time. Nice touch @RappaFencing #mobgrazing #regenerativeagriculture #organic

Herbal leys are so diverse, great for wildlife, livestock and the environment, can't wait to get more established and start mob grazing when the @RappaFencing system arrives. @JohnHar25622837 #organicfarming #herbal #leys #mobgrazing #biodiversity

Awfy chuffed with the new toy from @RappaFencing courtesy of #niallbowserlivestockequipment @argatyredkites. Just a wee system for a wee flock but made life much simpler. Didn't even need all the gates. #herdwick #herdy #allthegearstillnoidea – at Scotland, United Kingdom

One of my best and most used bits of kits is my @RappaFencing trailer and fence we have miles and miles of it I can't imagine life without one now so good 👍🏻.

As part of lambing prep the ewes are given a vaccine to help prevent some common diseases. On my @RappaFencing mobile handling system I have the race grip - which is a godsend - as it holds the ewe steady whilst I give her the injection. Much safer and quicker for both of us.
