ParaBoss workshop: Cattle parasite management workshop – pilot 3

10 Apr 2024 08:00AM - 10 Apr 2024 03:00PM

Location: Clermont, QLD

Cost: Free

Understanding the need for targeted, effective on-farm parasite management solutions for northern cattle operations, the ParaBoss extension team is delivering a one-day workshop aimed at improving the management of external and internal parasites in cattle herds in the north.

Buffalo fly and cattle tick are particularly problematic at present, and this workshop covers these important parasites in detail and allows workshop attendees to consider their control activities within the context of parasites local to their area.

Attendance is free of charge, and all workshop resources and catering will be supplied on the day. Places are limited to ensure excellent interaction between presenters and attendees.

We look forward to you joining us at the pilot. Please register here: https://bit.ly/3IG5cVn

The workshops will facilitate:

  • An improvement in overall skills and confidence of cattle producers in their understanding of internal and external parasite management
  • Improve access by producers to key sources of information
  • Less production losses/mortality from parasites in herds
  • Increased effectiveness of parasiticides and drenches
  • Decreased impacts of chemical resistance in all parasites

RSVP is essential – and the workshop numbers will be capped. Attendees will be registered on a first-in, best-dressed basis.
