Location:
ONLINE
Cost:
FREE

Winter grazing crops offer an excellent opportunity to rest pastures while making the most of valuable crop growth for livestock. They play a key role in building a pasture feed wedge to support feed availability during the colder months.

While high levels of production can be achieved from grazing crops, there are several challenges to be aware of—particularly in relation to nutritional imbalances that can vary depending on crop type, livestock class, and seasonal conditions. Careful planning is essential to minimise risks and maximise the benefits for your enterprise.

This webinar will explore the key considerations for successfully grazing sheep on winter crops. We'll cover strategies to optimise livestock performance and manage potential issues effectively.


Topics will include:
- Mineral nutrition and supplementation
- Fibre requirements and digestive health
- Managing metabolic diseases and animal health
- Feed testing 
- Fodder budgeting on crops
- Withholding periods

 
Join us to gain practical insights that will help you get the most out of your grazing crops while supporting the health and productivity of your sheep.

As always there will be ample time for questions. We strongly encourage you to ask any questions ahead of time by sending your questions via email to awiextensionnsw@wool.com and we will pass these onto Nicole.
