In this episode of In the Shed with Trev, host Sheryl Haitana is joined by Casey Brown from the P3 Trust, monitor farmer Teagan Gray, and Perrin Ag consultant Rhys Dawson to explore what happens when farmers open up their numbers and learn from each other.

On the Hauraki Plains, the P3 Trust brings farmers together to share real farm data, compare systems, and see what’s actually driving profit. Teagan shares what it’s like to put your numbers out there, and how that transparency builds confidence and sharpens decision-making.

Rhys provides a consultant’s view on what separates high-performing farms, with a clear focus on pasture grown and utilised on farm as a key driver of profit. Casey outlines how access to timely, relevant data helps farmers make faster, more informed decisions when it matters most.

This is a practical look at how shared data and benchmarking turn insight into action, helping farmers make better calls, reduce uncertainty, and lift performance over time.

If you’re making decisions in isolation or unsure how your farm compares, this episode shows how learning from others and focusing on a few key numbers can quickly lift performance.
