Having gained NCD and NCA qualifications at Somerset College of Agriculture, Mark acquired practical experience working on dairy farms in both the UK and United States before managing large-scale herds in the south and south-west of England. He then moved onto consultancy work with Promar International — the agri-food business arm of Genus — picking up the prestigious Consultant’s Consultant Award, before becoming a director of a farmer-controlled business buying group in Somerset.
