Behind the counter this week

We’ve been having a few conversations around feed, w**ds and animal health.

What questions are coming up for you at the moment?

Feels like every season brings something different.

From input costs to seasonal conditions, there’s a lot influencing decisions right now.

What’s changed most for you this year?

A look at what’s been happening in the yards this week.

Routine jobs, quick decisions, and plenty going on behind the scenes.

What have you been working through lately?

With planting underway or wrapped up in many areas, attention turns to establishment.

Moisture, early growth, and w**d pressure can all play a role in how things track from here.

What are you seeing so far?

Pre lambing prep is well underway in many regions.

It’s the small things, condition scoring, feed planning, shelter and setup, that can have a big impact when lambing starts.

What’s top of your list at the moment?

How was your Mothers day?

To the mums, grandmothers and mother figures who play such a big role in our farms, families and communities, thank you. We hope you had a great weekend.

What are you seeing out your way right now?

We’re hearing a mix across regions, some good early growth, some still waiting on that break.

Every season looks a bit different, and it’s these early weeks that often shape what comes next.

Drop a comment or share a photo, what’s happening on your place?

As pasture quality starts to decline, cattle performance can shift quickly.

Autumn is a key time to monitor condition scores and adjust feeding where needed.
Maintaining condition now can have a big impact on productivity through winter.

How are your cattle tracking this season?

Feed planning becomes more important from here.

What you’ve got on hand, what you’ll need and when it’s required.

A clear plan now helps avoid pressure later in winter.

Have you mapped it out yet?

Different regions, different seasons.

Some are still waiting. Others are well into autumn conditions.

What’s April looking like where you are?
