Lots of tips on cattle handling from farmers who’ve worked with thousands. Everything from working on their left side to walking in straight lines @stockandland

50 years of commercial Hereford breeding has left this Victorian farmer with docile, fertile and long-lived cows. Great to get some insights on the breed fighting for its corner of the Australian beef industry @stockandland

Nice to travel down to colleagues at @stockjournal this week to help the paper mark its 120th anniversary & cover the Royal Adelaide Show. Lots of cattle, sheep, pigs, goats and poultry ribbons to report on. Another part of Australia with a huge love for farming @stockandland

[Barry Murphy @BarryMurphyAg]

What an idea - The School Merino Wethers contest at the Royal Adelaide Show today drew in the crowds. 43 schools stepped out with their sheep. Many partner with local farmers & the kids learn about livestock, showing etc. Great way to get young people into Ag @stockjournal

[Barry Murphy @BarryMurphyAg]

Thieves raid Tasmanian farm before shooting & slaughtering bulls on the spot & making a getaway with the meat. @TasFarmers_ president Ian Sauer says armed trespassers on private farm land cannot be tolerated. Calls for action @TasLiberal @stockandland
