Some pics from recent farm visits….

Very SLOW trip up Muntham Hill - this truck was full of big utes apart from the small car - this shows how big they are! And no, I wasn’t driving!

The rest indicates that pasture conditions are more like early spring than mid winter!

And the first ewe photos were ewes spot on for condition score for close to lambing..

Client had them really spot on! Great to see…

At the Balmoral Merino Lifetime Productivity Project Seminar, with results presented after running for 10 years…

Great numbers and questions…

Economic modelling found profit/ha dominated by fleece value with a strong backup from repro rate equally shared by Conception, Littler Size and Rearing ability - surprised that the economic value is the same between them…

And genetic gain is evident over recent years in the “industry” indexes.

A very good day of science!

In Tassie last week again, seeing clients. Phenomenal regrowth in winter of Pallaton Raphnobrassica - this plant continues to impress.

And some ewe lambs on target on some very juicy pasture. Northern Midlands benefiting from some recent rain and mild soil temps to see a pasture recovery there.

No photos of south Tas was possible due to very thick fog - they weren’t worth publishing, but while most of south Tas is doing it hard, Derwent is going well, but it was the worst of the fog!

Getting wet in some parts of Western Vic. For some, it’s not wet yet, but enough soil moisture to have pastures growing madly. Quite a few farms now have dams full, others wanting some more to fill theirs.

WECs have been mostly low - some weaners are getting up, so need watching. Winter has finally come this week with some frosts, but so far, it’s been so warm that there has been some fly activity.

Saw TAS clients a couple of weeks ago. A tough winter is likely due to a poor autumn & lack of rain till recently.

Many ewes need to lose some weight before lambing to reduce dystocia risk. Some ewes in containment with on-off feeding on a pivot to lose weight gradually. This session was part of our South TAS LALE group. We have room for more participants, so if of interest, please get in touch.

Steers on good feed, well grown ewe lambs & investment in good sheep yards were positive things.

Continuing to present at “Production Hypocalcaemia” workshops for Elanco & DSM. This week in Tasmania - foggy, cold start this morning hitting the road to Bothwell. Had a great bunch of farmers, thanks to Elders Bothwell, with great questions and sharing of experiences.

It is a disease of good management affecting sheep producers in southern states. If you’ve improved pastures and running sheep with high repro rates & growth rates, then this disease may be affecting your ewes.

Supporting the Fight Against MND…

Amazing fight by Neale Daniher against the disease, living 13 years with it and his fight to raise awareness of this devastating disease…

Many have been affected, including a family member of one of our group….

Looking forward to seeing a cure and supporting that cause…

01/06/2026

Stock remain in good condition across western Vic and pastures are racing away due to moisture, at last, and 4°C above average soil temps.

Worms are mostly under control, with only the odd higher WEC. Dry seasons has a benefit for worm control!

Pastures mostly have a fair bit of dry feed overburden, but some paddocks have been eaten down successfully, but pastures getting to over 1,500 kg DM/ha FOO on many farms.

Just need more rain to fill dams and make the spring more certain.

A different day, last Sunday

Representing the Sheep, Camelid and Goat Vets of the AVA President, who was in Ireland, had to fly to Brisbane & back for the AVA’s Council of Presidents meeting.

A good meeting, but Melbourne Airport early, first sign of land coming into Brisbane & Brisbane River from the Airport train. Rest of the day spent in the meeting. Dark by the time I travelled back to Brisbane Airport via a Uber.

Finally, got back to my Melbourne stay at 10:30 pm! Another part of what we do!

21/05/2026

Pastures getting away quickly in western VIC at the moment. Some moisture and stratospheric soil temps working wonders. But pastures won’t get away if perennial density is insufficient. On the other hand, if the density is there, plenty of pasture.
We spend plenty of time clients helping to fix problematic pastures and planning pasture improvement to match stocking rate. So everything works to plan.
And lamb feedlot photos to dribble over to boot!
