STOCK CONTAINMENT TRIGGER POINT WORKSHOP
It can be challenging to decide when livestock should go into a containment facility, when they should be let out, what factors need to be considered, and where to get the best information.
What we'll cover
Facilitated by Cam Nicholson, an advisor and farmer from Geelong, this workshop will help to build a decision-making framework using local knowledge, with an aim of having clearly defined trigger points around containment decisions.
Riverine Plains Livestock Officer, Sophie Hanna, will also provide a brief update on the outcomes from the previous containment feeding workshop that was held on March 15th in Earlston and Baddaginnie.
