Watch a day in the life of Devon’s ‘Farmer of the Year’

Devon Farm Business Awards
Written By Lynne Dickens

Meet Matt and Rob Cotton, farming brothers from Exeter who have been farming both crops and livestock since 2008. The Cotton brothers studied agriculture at Harper Adams University and have now become very successful farmers in their own right.

Farming 1,100 hectares of combinable crops alongside beef and sheep, Matt and Rob shone through in our judging process and won both Best Commercial Farmers 2019 and Devon’s Farmers of the Year 2019.

The judges were very impressed by their hard work, respect for each other’s opinions and abilities, and any new business opportunities were critically appraised for the returns they deliver with decisions being made always for the long-term perspective.

Watch ‘A day in the life of Devon’s Farmers of the Year 2019’ to find out more about Matt and Rob’s award-winning farm and to see what they get up to on an average day around R & P Farming.
