How Cornwall Sheep Keeper Trafford Watters Simplifies Flock Records with iLivestock

Running sheep alongside a full-time career can be challenging, but Cornwall flock keeper Trafford Watters says digital record keeping has made life far easier.

Based on the Lizard Peninsula, Trafford began with a small number of breeding ewes to help manage grazing for his horses. Today, his flock continues to grow, and iLivestock has become an important part of day-to-day management.

Using the Fresh Farmer Scheme, Trafford says the system helps him keep on top of medicine records, movements, weighing and breeding information without the stress of paperwork.

“It cuts down on work and there are just so many benefits,” says Trafford.

From managing pedigree tupping groups to preparing for inspections, Trafford now relies on iLivestock to help fit sheep farming around his busy working life.
