Are high vet bills or persistent worm burdens affecting your farming operation?

Join us for a discussion on how integrating trees, hedges, diverse pastures, or adjusting pasture and grazing management can help improve livestock health and lower costs.

Speakers

- Dr Claire Whittle is a farm vet and new entrant farmer in North Wales. She is passionate about healthy livestock in healthy ecosystems and is a dung beetle expert.

- James Robinson (JR from Strickley) is a fifth generation dairy farmer from Cumbria who actively manages healthy hedges, trees, soil and livestock organically.

- Ifan Davies runs a family sheep farm in upland Montgomeryshire and has significantly reduced the use of wormers and flukicides in the flock.

Doors open at 6:30pm where dinner (soup and sandwiches) will be provided free of charge. However, spaces are limited so book early to avoid disappointment!
