Cleaning sheep

When it comes to tackling parasites, it’s important you’re keeping up to date with the latest tools and management techniques. Come along to this Wormwise workshop, facilitated by Wormwise-trained vet Mary Bowron, to ensure you’re using best practice.

 In this workshop the latest information and research on internal parasite control is presented. The integrated pest management system outlining the play-off between parasite control and drench resistance will enable participants to make informed choices for their farming business system.  

 We’re holding this workshop on-farm to make the most of the opportunity to also get in the yards and sharpen up our skills when it comes to body condition scoring. 

Topics covered

  • The worm life cycle.
  • Drenching programmes.
  • Refugia and how it can work for you.
  • Managing drench resistance on-farm.
  • Body condition scoring and why it’s important.

 The day starts promptly at 10am with a barbeque lunch provided.
