A workshop on feed budgeting will be held at the Whangaripo Valley Hall, 1272 Whangaripo Valley Road, on Thursday May 4, from 10am to 2pm.

The workshop will explore the principles and opportunities for setting up successful winter rotations on both sheep and beef farms, and efficient beef systems.

Industry experts will discuss topics such as what is feed budgeting and how to understand feed demand and feed supply.

Participants will come away from the day with a clear picture of how you will implement a successful winter rotation within a farm system and hear from other farmers about how they set themselves up for a successful winter.

The workshop is free and lunch will be provided. Register at https://events.beeflambnz.com/
