Hi,

Can anyone recommend where I can get a soil and forage analysis done to check my sheep pasture? I am in South Devon.

Thanks,

FrancesV

Mole Valley Farmers.


JG Animal Health are good - I had my forage analysed by Jonathan, not sure if he does soil too.

Another vote here for JG Animl Health - it's more important to have your forage analysed than the soil - our sheep eat grass, not mud.
