Elaine Leavy, Teagasc Organic Specialist caught up with Amy Jackson, organic sheep farmer from North Tipperary to get an overview of their farm and farming system and how they feed the ewe pre and post lambing.
Amy farms in partnership with her husband Ross on their 50.5Ha sheep and tillage farm in North Tipperary. They keep approximately 150 ewes that lamb in March/early April each year with many of their lambs sold direct to customers under their brand “Lacka organic lamb”.
Ewes have scanned at 1.68 lambs/ewe this year. Breeds include mainly Texel crosses, Charollais crosses, New Zealand Suffolk, Belclares, and Rouge. All ewes and lambs are out-wintered on cover crops and multi species swards until February before housing.
The Jacksons are farming organically since 2015.
