WORKSHOPS

Picking Performer Ewes is aimed at lifting the lifetime performance, productivity, and value of Merino ewes. The workshop covers the reproductive cycle, ‘passengers vs. performers’, scanning, condition scoring and wet & drying at marking, lambing and weaning well, and mapping out a management calendar.

RAMping Up Repro focuses on improving ram performance and working longevity in commercial sheep enterprises. The hands-on workshop covers pre-joining ram inspections, anatomy, physiology, spermatogenesis, metabolic demands, health, disease & biosecurity, and the financial impact of the ram team.

Winning With Weaners is for woolgrowers looking to improve weaner management of their Merino flock, targeting 95% weaner survival to one year of age. The workshop covers key issues affecting survival and performance, mortality and illthrift, nutrition, weaner growth and weight targets, and developing a management calendar.

SimpliFly™ is designed to help woolgrowers reduce the incidence and impact of flystrike on their flocks and profits. The practical workshop focuses on improving the management of flystrike in commercial sheep enterprises; reducing cost, production losses and welfare impacts.

[NEW] ClassiFly™ is designed to increase woolgrower knowledge and skills in sheep classing and selection strategies for improved flystrike resistance, to reduce the risk of flystrike in mulesed and non-mulesed sheep; reducing labour, and reliance on chemical use, mulesing and crutching.

[NEW] StrateFly™ is designed to improve woolgrowers' understanding of the tools available to them if they wish to develop a non-mulesed strategy for their enterprise. The workshop covers rebalancing the use and timing of crutching, shearing, chemical use, classing, and selection, to make the transition.
