WormBoss Sheep Workshop – Pilot 3

ParaBoss is developing a one-day workshop for sheep producers to help them improve their on-farm productivity and overall success in managing worms on farms.

The ParaBoss team invites interested sheep producers to take part in the third pilot of this workshop. The role of pilot attendees will be to participate in the workshop and provide grower-based feedback regarding workshop content. This feedback will be reviewed and will contribute to the final workshop content and resources.

The program for the day will be:

• Introduction, and cost of worms to the Australian sheep industry
• Worms and their life cycles
• Best practice worm control
• How to minimise the development of drench resistance on your farm
• Worm egg counts and what they tell you
• Using the WormBoss Drench Decision Guides – what product to use and when, dose rates, and important information on the label

The workshop will assist you with developing an integrated parasite management plan for your sheep operation which you will be able to take to implement on your property.

Attendance is free of charge, and all workshop resources and catering will be supplied on the day.

RSVP is essential – and the workshop numbers will be capped. Attendees will be registered on a first-in, best-dressed basis.

We look forward to you joining us at the pilot.
