I have previously worked on an farm over the summer milking, feeding claves and electric fencing and other general farm jobs

I am currently working on a dairy farm on a Monday and Wednesday feeding calves and milking on a Wednesday evening.

I have previously worked in an auction café pot washing and serving. This has given me experience working with hungry farmers, which has given me confidence in the hospitality sector to deal with some difficult customers at times.

• Assisted in daily feeding and care of calves to ensure proper nutrition and health.
• Monitored calf growth and behaviour to identify any signs of illness or distress.
• Maintained cleanliness of calf pens and feeding equipment to promote a hygienic environment.
• Participated in routine health checks, administering vaccinations and treatments as needed.

• Assisted servers by promptly delivering food and drink orders to customers ensuring timely service.
• Collaborated with kitchen staff to efficiently manage busy periods and ensure smooth operations during peak hours.
• Washed and sanitised kitchen utensils and equipment to maintain cleanliness and hygiene standards.

I got to experience 3 days working with some of the land agents at H&H auction mart in the Land Agency department.

I got to see what they got up to during the day and learned and listened about their duties and reasonability's.

Engaged in field visits to evaluate land conditions and document findings for project proposals.
