Latest beef genetics developments on show
Next month, the Beef Breeder Forum is set to give farmers an opportunity to hear about the latest developments in the beef industry.
Simon Andrew, OSPRI's general manager, disease control planning and integration says they are excited by this step in OSPRI's growth as an integrated disease management agency.
"Livestock TB testing remains an indespensible part of the TBfree programme, and we're working hard to ensure it continues at cattle and deer farms across New Zealand," says Andrew.
"By insourcing the service, it brings us closer to our farmers and that's particularly important given the crucial part they play in our TB eradication programme."
Andrew says it also introduces more agility, whether that's responsiveness to emerging technology or when changes in TB testing are needed quickly.
