Parasites and drench resistance are becoming a major challenge for farmers across New Zealand, putting real pressure on productivity and profitability. Quick, accurate diagnosis can make all the difference — saving time, saving money, and helping you make smarter decisions on-farm. In the next episode of the podcast series brought to you by Beef and Lamb New Zealand and powered by The Country, Hamish McKay dives into this issue with Vet Sarah Williams, and Cheviot farmer Harry Railton. Together, they look at how Beef and Lamb New Zealand’s livestock management groups are making a difference in the ways parasites are controlled and monitored on farm, and how the farmer lead groups are helping innovate parasite management strategies.     See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
