Maintain ram strength during tupping for a successful breeding season. Ensure rams have continuous access to high-quality feed and clean water, supplementing their diet if pasture quality declines. Watch for signs of exhaustion or injuries, rotating rams as needed. Use marking harnesses to track which ewes have been mated, allowing for prompt replacement of tired or injured rams.

Did you know Algi40 is UFAC’s sustainable, high-quality alternative to fish oil for Omega-3s? Packed with 40% DHA, EPA, and DPA, Algi40 boosts pigs' intake of essential fatty acids, enhancing growth, health, fertility, and overall well-being. But the benefits don’t stop with livestock. These long-chain Omega-3s are vital for humans too, as our bodies can't produce them on their own. Algi40 helps reduce heart disease risk and improves cardiovascular health, passing these advantages from animals to consumers through meat, milk, and eggs.

ICYMI: In this short video, Professor Phil Garnsworthy summarises the key findings in his scientific trial of envirolac, which was recently published in the Animal Feed Science and Technology Journal. "The trial went very well. We expected the performance of envirolac to be similar to the palm-based, but it turned out to be slightly better" - Professor Phil Garnsworthy.

3 tips to keep your ewes healthy and productive during tupping: 1. Maintain high-quality pasture or supplementary feeding as needed. Consistency prevents digestive issues. 2. Monitor for estrus and active mating, recording breeding dates to predict lambing times. 3. Continue providing supplements such as promega and glycerene to support ongoing reproductive health.
