You only need to save 1 calf or prevent 1 call-out to pay for this - Handy tips guaranteed!
This is not just aimed at beginners, but for everybody involved in calving cows.
The workshop will start at 10:30am with a presentation, followed by a hands-on practical session after lunch.
We will cover areas including:-
Different stages of a normal calving
When to interfere
Reasons of calving problems
How to deal with them
Common problems after calving
In the practical session, you will get to identify and correct different presentations on a calving simulator, using real calves.
Due to the practical aspect (we have 2 simulators), we will limit the places to 6-8 people, so everyone will get enough practice.
The cost will be £75 + VAT per person, including lunch.
All FarmSkills courses are taught in groups of 6-8, to allow everyone to get the most from the course. The trainers are Lantra approved and all delegates will receive a FarmSkills certificate on completion of the course.
