Sheep, goat parasite control presentation in Canton Dec. 2

Posted

CANTON -- Tatiana Stanton of the Cornell University Sheep and Goat Program will present an update on parasite control research funded on Dec. 2 at 7 p.m. at 2043B State Highway 68.

The cost is 45 per farm. Field trials were conducted at the CCE St. Lawrence County Extension Learning Farm.

“Producers at these December programs will learn how the use of birdsfoot trefoil as a pasture based means of parasite control worked in real-life situations under our regional conditions,” Cornell Cooperative Extension NNY Regional Livestock Specialist Betsy Hodge said.

Hodge will present information on winter feeding basics, including when and what feed products to use to supplement sheep and goat diets through the cold weather season.

She will cover how to evaluate the content and quality of hay and forage and related feeding program adjustment options.
