Join us for an informative dairy beef field day at the McDonald's property at Reporoa, where we'll explore how to make the most of dairy beef opportunities on your farm. Jeff and Nicola own Kairuru Hereford and host the Reporoa calf sales.

Whether you're already involved with dairy beef or just starting out, this event offers valuable insights and hands-on advice.

Topics on the day will include:

  • Dairy Beef Integration: We will have Jim Inglis from Beef and Lamb and Ben Watson from Genez along to discuss what is happening in the dairy beef integration space and how this could relate to your operation—whether you're a dairy farmer looking to add value to surplus calves or a beef farmer keen to secure a consistent calf supply.
  • Securing Calves: We’ll discuss strategies for accessing quality calves at the right time, and understanding what to look for when selecting calves for rearing.
  • From 100kg to 200kg: Discover how to take your calves through this critical weight range efficiently. We'll look at various strategies that set your animals up for long-term success.

Come along, ask questions, share experiences, and connect with others in the dairy beef space.
