Last year, we spoke with one of our farmer shareholders, Sam Waugh, who has been taking a number of actions on his farm to help improve efficiencies including herd and pasture management. On Sam’s farm, his cows were 97% grass-fed during the 2024/25 season, and they graze on pastures which are predominantly made up of ryegrass and clover, and more recently, forage crops. Using his Farm Insights Report, Sam had identified an opportunity to improve feed efficiencies by growing crops to support the herd’s nutrition and milk production during the dry summer months and maintain milk production.
