In this episode, we dive into the essential guidelines for end‑of‑season drying off with Rob Brazendale, an expert in pasture management and cow conditioning.
We explore decision‑making strategies around drying off, including pasture covers and residuals, the use of supplementary feed, and how to maintain cows at ideal body condition scores. Rob shares practical insights into winter grazing strategies, feed budgeting, and how to transition cows successfully through the dry period and into calving.
Listeners will gain valuable knowledge on optimising pasture management, improving feeding strategies for condition gain, and exploring the role of new pasture species and winter crops. Whether you’re approaching drying off now or planning ahead, this episode offers practical, experience‑based advice to support confident on‑farm decision making.
