Last week Meat & Livestock Australia released three new resource guides to assist sheep and beef producers to enhance their livestock, pasture and business performance.
The Sheep producers’ resource guide, Southern beef producers’ resource guide and the Northern beef producers’ resource guide contain a range of MLA resources available to boost productivity and profitability within sheep and southern and northern beef enterprises.
This includes practical tools, events, training programs and other resources MLA provides to assist producers to:
•Learn about the latest on-farm research and technologies.
•Access livestock market information and analysis.
•Build practical skills such as best practice vaccination.
•Gain more knowledge on topics such as genetics, feedbase management and pain mitigation in livestock.
•Increase drought resilience.
The guides also contain information on current MLA programs designed to assist producers to drive profits and meet production goals within their business, such as the Northern Breeding Business (NB2) program and the Towards 90 (T90) program.
Longer-term training programs and industry networks producers can get in touch with to access further support and information for their beef or sheep enterprise are also provided in the guides.
