5 different livestock areas on the farm
Harper Adams offers a little bit of everything when it comes to its livestock on the farm. Through a multi-million pound investment we’ve expanded our dairy and pig units, and created a food research Centre and on-farm teaching hub. Livestock include 390 dairy cows and 280 followers, 230 sows, 70,000 hens, two sheep flocks and an intensive beef unit. Our latest undertaking is the new addition of a robotic dairy unit which has been in operation since June.
