Store Lambs Part 1

We’re joined over the next two episodes by Michael Gottstein, Head of Sheep knowledge Transfer in Teagasc, to discuss store lambs.  In this first part, Michael discusses the current market condition for stores, some of the challenges and the potential of store lamb finishing.  We discuss the options for lowland and hill farmers with remaining lambs on farms, the importance of feed and financial budgets and what hill flocks can do to improve saleability.  For more episodes from the OviCast podcast, visit the show page at:
