STOCK CONTAINMENT AREA DEMOSTRATION

What we'll cover

This stock containment area demonstration will focus on design, nutrition and animal management.

Our host farmer, Tom Marriott, will discuss his site, how he uses it, the construction, pros, cons and ideas for improvement.

Garry Armstrong and Rebecca Stacey (Murray LLS) will discuss:

  • Management design, construction, regulations
  • Animal management to optimise reproduction and health nutrition.

Rob Inglis (Elders Wagga Wagga) will speak on general sheep management, particularly ewe nutrition and lactation management.

We will then hold a Q&A session. Morning tea provided.
