Manage episode 520117739 series 3612052
Richard Stanbury is a fourth generation beef and sheep farmer from near the edge of Exmoor in Devon. He has changed his system towards a high grass and forge system, with a focus on reducing inputs and maxmising profit. He has moved towards Easycare ewes.
He is working with Nerys of the ParaSight project, so they talk about his plans to make sure he is using his data effective and the technology is helping him make decisions rather than taking up time and patience
