Fertiliser prices are finally dropping! Teagasc has forecast that fertiliser prices will fall by 35% this year, which is great news for farmers throughout Ireland. Still, the high cost of fertilisers over the last few years has made us all realise the importance of testing the nutritional value of fresh grass for forage. If you have all the nutrients you need in the grass you feed to your animals, then you might not have to spend money on fertilisers to top up. Analysis will help you cut costs, ensure you only apply the fertilisers and supplements that are needed, and optimise crop growth and livestock production. Don’t stop saving now!

Climate change poses a significant challenge for poultry production. Some of these challenges include heat stress, droughts , and floods. Addressing the challenge of excessive heat, droughts, or floods, and their adverse effects on crop yields, nutritional content, and increased risks of pests, pathogens, and weed outbreaks, the action entails diversifying feed sources by exploring alternative ingredients less reliant on climate-sensitive crops and implementing standardized toxin mitigation solutions for mycotoxins found predominantly in vulnerable crops like corn and sorghum, thereby safeguarding feed quality and poultry health. What do you think is a sustainable approach to mitigating the impact of climate on feed quality for poultry and other livestock?

XPES UV Sterilizer Production Process The Role of UV Sterilizers in Aquaculture👇 UV disinfection is a critical component in maintaining water biosecurity at all stages of shrimp farming, from hatcheries to nurseries and grow-out facilities. It effectively inactivates common shrimp diseases such as White Spot Syndrome (WSSV), Vibrio, EMS, and Mortality Syndrome (EHP), without altering water properties or creating harmful residues. This leads to healthier post-larval and juvenile shrimp, which are more resilient during the grow-out stage, resulting in higher survival rates. #xpes #uvsterilizer #uvdisinfection #aquaculture #farm #manufacturer #bacteria
