Diagnosing triple drench resistance in a lamb finishing system could have major implications for both the finisher and the breeder selling store lambs.
If the finisher can no longer grow lambs then who will buy them? Reconnecting with the breeders also created the opportunity to talk about other factors that have a significant impact on finishers farm system; weaning management, vaccinations, quarantine drenching, pneumonia, planning when lambs would arrive.
We will present what has changed in the farm system, what we have learned and if we have managed to introduce drench susceptible worms into the farm system.
