Enrolments Open - Heifer Check Program!

The Heifer Check Program

 Agricultural Scientist Dr Kirsty Kennedy and Livestock Vet Dr Kathryn Robertson are teaming up to give local beef businesses their annual performance check.

“The management of our heifers underpin the future structure and performance of our beef business and sometimes we struggle to optimise the performance of these animals. That is why we have developed a program to help producers achieve production targets and implement management strategies that will optimise performance of these females”, says Kirsty from Thrive Agri Services.

In the “Heifer Check” program Kirsty and Kathryn work with individual producers to set production plans and targets for their heifer herds prior to joining. Participants then undertake a series of webinars where the key production and animal health issues relevant to their stage of production are explored. Having two intakes each year, based on the time of calving, enrolments are now open to prepare heifers for the Autumn 2022 calving period.
