Robin Skailes
Director at Cropwell Bishop Creamery
Kite Consulting has helped us manage the milk supply for our creamery since 2009. They look after everything; milk quality, pricing schedules, milk statements, as well as keeping us at the creamery up to date on the national industry picture. They are on hand to sort out any issues on farm and run best practice meetings with our producers to continually improve our milk pool.
Working with Kite works incredibly well for us. Chris Flint and his colleagues not only provide a professional service, they have a knowledge of the industry that is second to none and are a really important part of our team.
Richard Ward
West View Farm
Kite has provided us with support on farm for the last two decades – mainly on dairy cow rationing, but occasionally providing business support and helping us to work out costings for specific projects.
The support they provide is particularly useful when it comes to ration formulation. With their advice and knowledge of the feed markets, we are able to consistently formulate cost effective feeds that maintain good cow health, whilst also enabling us to hit our key output objectives; be it milk yield, protein content or butterfat.
Whilst employing the services of a consultant does represent a significant cost, I feel that we get a good return on investment. If I didn’t, I wouldn’t have been working with Kite for more than 20 years!
