Summary

The editing and publication of a manual on Water medication a guide for producers was supported, providing guidelines for the provision of nutritional supplements to livestock through their water supply. This manual originated from discussions between the Western Queensland Regional Beef Research Committee and Meat & Livestock Australia. Experts were commissioned to review the scientific publications on the subject, to gather information on the use of water medication on commercial beef enterprises and to provide recommendations to MLA regarding any future research on the technology and its application.
