Planning ahead during dry seasonal conditions is critical for maintaining livestock health and making informed feeding decisions.

These workshops are hosted by TasFarmers in collaboration with AWI Extension TAS, Pear Consulting, Longford and Northern Midlands Veterinary Services and TAS Farm Innovation Hub.
