Drought Management

In times of drought, it is more important than ever to make the most of your resources.

Beware of quick-fix products and those offering unqualified assistance. There are many questions that you might have, and an independent approach will provide the best outcomes.

Questions that you might ask are:

  • Minerals and trace elements, do I need them?

  • Will my drought rations sustain my livestock?

  • What are the most cost efficient feeding strategies?

  • Should I establish a containment area?

We are skilled in assisting with these questions and can also help with:

  • feed budgets
  • Ration formulation in paddock and containment situations
  • Gross margin budgeting
  • Management of stock within containment areas.

We are able to provide assistance one-on-one or via workshops for small groups.

We may also be able to recommend government assistance plans which may be suited to your individual operation.
