SPECIAL EPISODE: Lets discuss wintering with Deane Parker, Duncan Humm and Jono Frew

The Quorum Sense Podcast

In this podcast, recorded especially for our Wintering Innovations Series, Deane Parker, Duncan Humm and Jono Frew discuss their wintering journeys.

Deane talks about going from relying on unreliable winter crops to a full bale grazing system on his mid Canterbury dairy farm.

Duncan shares his journey from heavy pugging on his mid Canterbury deer farm, which included wintering cows from nearby dairy farms. And to lifting stag numbers, introducing diverse species winter crops and silage, and treating his soil totally differently.

Jono adds his first season's learnings from managing a large beef and winter dairy grazing farm in the Waitaki, which involves making their own hay and silage and adapting to the conditions.

This is a lively early-morning discussion between three passionate practitioners who have evolving views on how to look after their animals and their soil.
