Please fill out this survey on non chemical worm control i.e. methods that are not worm drenches or worm injections or backliners. Bioworma, cross species grazing and keeping pastures long are all non-chemical methods of worm control.

[Sandra Baxendell @goatvet]

Before you phone your vet or contact me on the PhoneAvet app examine your goat carefully. Vets will ask the rectal temperature, respiratory rate (watch the chest for 15 seconds then X by 4) and listen on the left hand side of the top abdomen for 2 minutes for rumen movements.

[Gordon Refshauge @GordonRefshauge]

For goat producers, this will be an outstanding tour. All stops are high quality.

RD&E insights from within NSW DPIRD, internally focused but very common across the Australian agricultural landscape. Especially appreciated the adoption and extension elements.

Thanks for sharing @DingoResearch!
