Newsletter

Stay in the loop with our monthly Waikato cow body condition scores and pasture feed quality insights

Every month, we collect grass samples and cow body condition scores from ten herds comprising 3,700 cows across the Waikato. Why? It’s a tool to provide context to help Open Country farmers make better on-farm management decisions relating to efficiency, nutrition, pasture management, complimentary feeding and animal management.

Our monthly newsletter shares these insights. Real data, real farms, real trends – helping you make smarter decisions for your pasture and your cows.

SUBSCRIBE NOW to get these findings straight to your inbox and stay ahead of the season.
