Teagasc Beef Specialist Aidan Murray joins Catherine Egan on this week’s episode of the Beef Edge podcast with some top tips on managing nutrition with high feed costs this winter. 

 

Aidan outlines the current position with feed availability this winter and discusses the various options.

 

This year, he explains, it’s very important for farmers to test silage in order to reduce costs as much as possible.  

 

Aidan also describes how to take a silage a sample from a pit or bales and he discusses the target weight gains to be achieved this winter.
