Stirlingshire Summer Meeting Report
Making a success of re-seeds, lamb weaning and virtual fencing
On Friday 11 July 2025, 32 members of the Stirlingshire farming community came along to Lands of Drumhead Farm, Balfron Station, for the Monitor Farm Summer Open meeting.
Monitor Farmers, the Duncan’s, gave an update as to what had been happening on the farm including using virtual fencing for the 25 cows at Inveruglas.
The Duncan family want to produce more kilos from grass. The attendees discussed the re-seed with the Duncan family, Graham Lofthouse (Farm Advisor), and Pat Lambert (Watsons Seeds).
The Management Group wanted to focus on how to wean lambs successfully. Emily Grant has been advising the Duncan family on how to increase farm profits.
