Farming
Sundorne Castle Estate operates its own innovative arable enterprise, and supports a number of additional tenant farms.
It is principally an arable farm growing a combination of oilseed rape, milling wheat, malting barley, potatoes, maize and rye to assured standards.
It is at the forefront of emerging technology in employing GPS yield mapping data, soil sampling, airborne gLAI images and various practical trials to reduce the requirement for intensive land working and inputs whilst producing crops to a high standard.
Borage
Borage or Starflower as it is more commonly known is a herb. It is said, that borage has a taste comparable to that of cucumber. Borage has various culinary applications and is also used in medicinal remedies for fevers and coughs. In 2022 we grew Borage for the very first time on Sundorne.
