Dean Farming is a progressive, family-owned agribusiness based on the Lincoln Heath, just south of Lincoln. Our family has farmed the same land for over a century, building a reputation for trust, responsibility, and innovation. This heritage underpins everything we do; from sustainable soil management to the long-term partnerships we build with neighbouring farmers.

Dean Farming Ltd, previously named Aubourn Farming Ltd, joined Patrick Dean Ltd in 2019. Dean Farming now farms over 8,000 acres on behalf of several different landowners. Bringing the PDL and DFL businesses together strengthened our position as a leading provider of tailored contract farming services, combining traditional values with modern machinery, data-led decision-making, and sustainable practices.

We care for every acre we farm as if it were our own, delivering a whole-farm solution that maximises returns while taking a long-term approach to soil health. With expertise across a wide range of land, Dean Farming offers the scale, skill, and forward-thinking approach needed to meet the demands of modern agriculture.

Our team understands the unique requirements of each farm, managing day-to-day operations while providing clear, comprehensive and transparent updates to our landowners.

Proud of our past and invested in the future, Dean Farming continues to grow as a modern, resilient, and innovative agribusiness. Yet, despite our ambition, we remain a small business at heart, retaining a personal approach and remaining firmly connected to our family farm roots.
