Nick is the lead producer in ASHEEP & BEEF’s ‘Optimising age of weaning cattle’ project, a Meat & Livestock Australia (MLA) producer demonstration site (PDS) facilitated by Dr Enoch Bergman (Swans Veterinary Services). The three-year project is entering its final season and we took an opportunity to get Nick’s perspective on learnings so far and plans for the current weaning.
