Tim Johnston is the owner and manager of Waradgery, a farm located northwest of Hamilton in Victoria. They operate a self-replacing Coopworth breeding program, in conjunction with Coopworth and South Sussex studs.l In 1991, after graduating from university and following the sudden death of his father, Tim and his wife came back to the farm to take over. And this just so happened to be in the midst of the 'wool crash' of the 90s. Tim is always interested in finding new ways to run the farm. And with a solid background in agricultural science, Tim shares what drew him to the Coopworth breed. &nbsp; Connect: <ul> <li><a href="https://www.ruralbank.com.au/">Rural Bank website</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/RuralBankAU/">Rural Bank on Facebook</a></li> <li><a href="https://twitter.com/ruralbank">Rural Bank on Twitter</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/rural-bank">Rural Bank on LinkedIn</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/RuralBankAU">Rural Bank on YouTube</a></li> </ul> This show is produced in collaboration with Wavelength Creative.
