Health & Breeding Guarantee

 

Latest routine four-yearly clear Tuberculosis Test completed 12th January 2018. The entire adult herd is Johnes tested along with the TB test every 4 years as a cost-effective surveillance method to determine the absence of Johnes within the herd. The breeding herd has been on a strict Lepto, BVD and IBR vaccination programme since 2001.
Our customers value our robust disease biosecurity, the high health status and remoteness of our closed herd.
