Converting Tyddyn Cae from Beef and Sheep Farm to Dairy

The aims of the project is to convert Tyddyn Cae from a low invested beef and sheep farm to a well invested dairy farming operation to give the next generation of family members a sustainable future on the farm. The farm is close to Hufenfa De Arfon who are supportive of purchasing the milk.

The investment includes a cubicle and dry cow building for 200 cows with high comfort cubicles and mattress. A new 20 :40 milking parlour, bulk tank and collecting yard will be required to milk the herd. With the location being on a green field site investment in slurry storage is also required.
