EPISODE 63 - WHY WE'RE SUPPLEMENTING OUR COWS' FEED THIS SUMMER

Join Farmer Colin as he explains why some of our animals are receiving extra feed this summer and how the recent hot, dry weather has affected grass growth across the farm.

WELCOME TO THE SERIES

Welcome back to Behind the Barn Door - your behind-the-scenes look at life at Cantref Adventure Farm. In Episode 63, Farmer Colin explains how the recent hot and dry weather has affected grass growth on the farm. With less fresh grazing available than we would normally expect at this time of year, some of our animals are being given supplementary feed to make sure they continue to get the nutrition they need.

• Why the hot, dry weather has slowed grass growth across the farm
• Why some of our cows need supplementary feed during the summer

• How we adapt to make sure our animals stay healthy, happy and well-fed

IN OUR OWN WORDS
