In this episode we interview Andrew Bouffler.  Andrew, his wife Mandi and their three children farm near Lockhart in Southern NSW. Around 13 years ago Andrew completed a Nuffield Scholarship. He reflects on what he learnt then and what he has learnt since as he continues on a life-long journey to continually improve his mixed farming enterprise and the sheep that he breeds.  He discusses the importance of breeding fitness into animals and building resilience into farm businesses.
