Manage episode 412996906 series 2887467
Sheep Specialists, Michael Gottstein and Damian Costello, are on this week’s OviCast to discuss some of the key management tasks to do on farms at present.
We discuss fertiliser application, planning for silage and grazing management and we look at the scenarios where supplementation is needed.
In the second half we switch to dealing with the various health challenges highlighting the continued risk of grass tetany, treating for Nematodirus and Coccidia. We also discuss the challenge mastitis poses in ewes at the moment and the need to treat early where scald appears in lambs.
