Case Studies

Explore practical case studies that share real farmer experiences of improving livestock and crop health using low-input, holistic, and natural approaches.

These case studies are farmer led and researcher reviewed, and are designed to help others benefit from what has worked on farm and in practice.

Whether you’re looking for ways to reduce reliance on synthetic chemicals and antibiotics without compromising welfare, or for nature-friendly approaches to parasite and disease prevention, we hope you will feel inspired.
