Genetic improvement has been a key contributor to the sustainability of animal agriculture. Delaying access to genetic innovations is associated with a high opportunity cost "Current & future uses of genetic improvement technologies in livestock breeding" doi.org/10.1093/af/vfa…

🐄 A recent Aussie study investigated what drives growth in young female #Brahman cattle grazing pastures in Northern #Australia.🌾☀️ 🌦️ Seasonal variation had the biggest impact on liveweight gain, largely due to better #pasture quality during the wet season.

You may have seen the latest attack launched by The Guardian/DeSmog on critics of the EAT-Lancet diet. The hypocrisy is massive; if you're interested in conflicts of interest, here's what's really going on: aleph2020.org/opinion/activi…

If every grade 6 in Australia was shown how to make a simple skink survey rig (& got to test it at home for free) imagine what that would do for future Citizen Science and do-it-at-home-conservation. Lampropholis guichenoti - Sun skink/garden skink/penny lizard.

Managing grazing , SR , boxing errors and destocking via performance - EID use a scanning probably the easiest bang for buck for producers- don’t have to buy any gear to collect and the tags going in anyway

Invasive species cost 🇦🇺 $24.5 billion every year & and have caused 45 extinctions Emerging tech like gene editing could transform how we manage these threats I’ve been pushing for an Invasive Species Future Fund to ensure consistent funding to do this theguardian.com/environment/20…

🐄 Hundreds of livestock breeds have already gone #extinct due to #selectivebreeding.  🌍 The UN’s Food and Agriculture Organisation reports the number of breeds at risk of #extinction jumped from 15% to 17% in just a decade.

The average killing of lambs by #foxes is estimated to be 7%. In some areas it can be between 10–30% of lambs. It is not only a $$ loss, but causes anguish to both ewes & farmers like Craig. #thisiswhywedoit. Fox mgmt is vital to reduce impacts. For info: feralcatandfox.com.au

Puggles hatch from eggs after ~10 days and nurse from milk patches in their mother’s burrow for 3-4 months. At emergence, they’re about 80% of adult size, with venomous spurs already forming in males. They start hunting small prey like insects and crustaceans right away
