A Central Murray BestWool BestLamb co-funded initiative. 

28th March 2019 - 83 people

• High risk of disease lambing down in feedlot
• Need more than 30m2/ewe (take consideration birth of lambs that will increase number in pen)
• Run <100 twin bearing ewes in 50-100ac. Mob size max 350 lambs.
• Broadcast pulse grain in paddock and provide ad lib hay and self-feeders for twin bearing ewes to decrease disturbance
• Spread out feeders for twin bearing ewes
• B12 & ADE shots may be beneficial for ewes this year
• Providing hay increases milk fats
• Feed bypass protein (sorghum, canola , cotton seed, soybean meal) 1 month from point of lambing until birth

100% of participants said they would recommend the workshop and learnt something new.
