Workshop
Whether you are running dairy support, dairy beef or traditional beef, you need to be aware that drench resistance isn’t just a sheep problem. Drench resistance in cattle parasites is now common throughout New Zealand.
We can reduce our reliance on drench by working towards farm systems that enhance production while reducing the impact of worms. The end game is less reliance on drench. Our host farm runs a mix of cattle enterprises including dairy beef, nurse cows and traditional beef finishing, so there’s something for everyone.
About the day
- Wormwise basics – know your enemy.
- How nutrition, forages and grazing management strategies can be integrated to drop worm challenge.
- Practical monitoring strategies to know you’re on track.
- Choosing the right drenches for your situation and ways to keep them effective.
