Hello and welcome to the GrassCheck Podcast. Today we are bringing you the audio recording of a webinar we held recently on “Autumn Options for Beef”.

As you will be well aware the summer of 2023 has been particularly challenging for Northern Ireland's dairy, beef and sheep farmers. After a dry May and June, there has been almost incessant rain which has affected grass quality and hampered silage making. Ground conditions in many areas have been challenging with stock having to be housed at times. These conditions have not been conducive to livestock health and performance and it is likely that many of the silages being fed to livestock this winter will be sub-optimal. At the same time farmers are facing a cost / price squeeze with the cost of purchased feed remaining near historical highs and beef prices are under pressure.

With these issues in mind AgriSearch, in partnership with CAFRE and AFBI, organised a webinar for Northern Ireland beef farmers which looked at options that farmers can take this autumn to help mitigate the challenges they are facing.
