'The 'Golden Hoof’ is, thankfully, once again being recognised as an essential method of cereal management, with an increased focus on soil biology and effective nutrient cycling.

This method of cereal management went out of fashion years ago with the advent of chemical fungicides and plant growth regulators. But, with input costs skyrocketing and growers taking more of an interest in soil biology and nutrient cycling, mob grazing winter cereals with sheep is experiencing something of a renaissance.

As regenerate farming makes a welcome comeback, Rappa continues to work with the farming community, leading the way in helping farmers with livestock management.

Shepherd Karl Franklin says: "I use Rappa fencing and mobile yards to help with my mob grazing as it means I can graze across arable fields where there is no stock fencing. The Winder and fencing kit fits nicely on my bike so I’m able to load up in the morning and a head off for a day - making it more efficient!”
