Charlotte Ashley: Making the switch from beef to dairy on her Cumbria farm (part one)

Charlotte Ashley and her husband, Roy, have always had a dream: Jersey cows. Having been beef and sheep farmers in Cumbria for many years, their dream has finally come to fruition, having recently finished building their shed which now houses their newly-welcomed Jersey cow herd. But what was the motivation behind the decision? Dairy can be a volatile sector, so what is their route to market and what is their business plan? In the first of a two-part series, Farmers Guardian's online editor Emily Ashworth finds out more.

V good interview. I've a lot of time for charlotte and what her and Roy have done. I was septical at times, they still have a lot to learn about dairying, especially managing cows, but I'm sure they will make it work and I wish them all the best.
