Get ready for Moving Day
Moving Day is a big day in the farming calendar and requires good planning and communication to ensure success.
Planning and preparing for calving with the farm team will reduce stress when calving is in full swing, and help keep everyone safe and healthy, says DairyNZ.
Calving is one of the busiest times of the year.
"Spend time with your team prior to calving to create a plan that works for everyone and the results will follow," it says.
