The land is currently farmed under a Contracting Agreement. The arable land has been cropped in a traditional arable rotation and is fallow this autumn with the exception of 40 acres of newly planted rye grass.
Compost, farmyard manure and digestate have been applied over recent years to build fertility and further details are available on request. Spring crops and maize for a local AD plant are scheduled to be drilled in the spring of 2022.
