ASHEEP & BEEF with support from Cattle veterinarian Dr Enoch Bergman of Swans Veterinary Services are delivering three MLA funded Producer Demonstration Site projects focused on cattle production:

  • Utilising Heifer Pre-Mating Serology to Manage BVDV: Measuring heifer’s immune status to Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus allowing investment in the best intervention.
  • Preventing bull preputial breakdown by vaccination: Attempting to reduce the incidence and severity of balanoposthitis in virgin bulls through targeted vaccination.
  • Optimising age of weaning cattle: Measuring the impact of weaning two months earlier on both calves and their dams

 

Join Enoch, Todd Quinlivan, Quintarra Farms, Simon Fowler, Chilwell Farms and Nick Ruddenklau, Epasco Farms for an overview of each of the projects and some of their early results.
