Weaners for Profit (WFP) enables producers to analyse weaner performance, manage post-weaning, manage ewe lambs and hoggets during joining, early and late pregnancy as well as preparing hoggets for joining and reviewing ewe lamb performance.
Weaners for Profit has been designed to follow the successful RIST & AWI Lifetime Ewe Management course.
A group of 5-7 participants from the same local area are grouped together and a Trainer will coordinate your group and deliver the course content to your group on farm.
Across 12 months, participants will meet on farm for five, one-day- sessions, and conduct pasture assessments and hands-on sheep management training/weighing under the guidance of an experienced WFP trainer.
The Weaners for Profit course is valued at $2,550 + GST per participant.
Thanks to the support of Meat & Livestock Australia Profitable Grazing Systems, a $765 subsidy is available to eligible participants. To confirm your eligibility, please contact the National Program Manager.
