FAS TV S5 Episode 1
FAS TV is back for Season 5! We are kick starting the season off with a visit to Stewart and Lorna Shaw at Smailholm Mains, AgriScot Sheep Farm of the Year in 2024. We visit during lambing time to hear from Stewart about their set up to produce high quality fat lambs and a cross ewe lamb for selling on as breeding stock. Lorna fills us in on the importance of getting the nutrition right on a livestock farm and the changes she's help make on the family farm.
FAS TV is a weekly agricultural show which recreates traditional on-farm visits.
Designed for farmers and crofters, each episode delivers technical messages in a digestible format, with real farmers demonstrating advice in practice.
