This protocol has been developed by Sundown Pastoral Company Pty Ltd to assist in the overall health of the weaner cattle prior to the sale of these weaners.
This is the best practice for preconditioning weaner cattle prior to their background and feedlot phase, says Mr Monk.
Stress management is the major contributing factor to reducing respiratory diseases and the bunk/trough (imprinting) training of weaners at weaning will assist with the performance of these weaners in backgrounding and feedlots.
