Celebrating his 20th season as Lincoln University Dairy Farm Manager, Peter Hancox discusses the groundbreaking EcoPond effluent treatment unit currently being trialled on the farm.

He also touches on the broader use of advanced monitoring tools like Minder and ProTrack, alongside Allflex collars for livestock management.
