Midgley Farm Services
was set up in 1997 by
Michael Midgley to offer
a range of on-farm
services using his
experience of more than 25
years running the
family’s mixed farm in
Yorkshire.
Now based
in Lincolnshire, he is
able to turn his hand to
most farm tasks and
operate the full range
of farm machinery, but
specialises in cattle.
He set up and ran both a
dairy unit and a suckler
herd and also kept a
flock of sheep on the
home farm before the
business was split up in
1994 and is one of that
increasingly rare breed,
a true stockman!
The
current business began
with a mobile cattle
handling system, The
Flying Crush, which is
still the main focus
using new equipment
manufactured to his
design,
including a new,
award-winning mobile
feeder/pen. Over the years
he has expanded his
operation to include a
range of other services
for agricultural,
forestry, drainage and
allied businesses.
Michael
has also gained
experience in
supervising casual
labour, including
migrant workers, for
whom he has considerable
respect.
AREA OF OPERATION:
Mostly Lincolnshire, the
East Midlands, North
Norfolk and Yorkshire
but his expertise with
cattle means he has been
called on to work as far
afield as the Scottish
Borders and Durham in
the north and Surrey in
the south.
