Profiting from genetic potential | Bollon | Eulo

The drought has taken its toll on QLD cattle herds with numbers down across the board.  The silver lining is the opportunity to use the herd rebuilding phase to review your herd genetic and management strategies. Investing in the most suitable genetics can deliver large gains in animal performance and business profitability.

A full day workshop, FutureBeef (DAF) speaker, Tim Emery, will discuss practical ways to improve herd fertility and profitability. 

Topics include:

• Selecting bulls using objective measurements.
• Accessing and using EBVs and online data
• Management to maximise bull performance
• The role of heifers in herd rebuilding
• Management to maximise heifer performance 
• Key findings from multiple research projects: Beef CRC, Bull Power, BIN projects
