The meetings, taking place at locations around England, will provide practical, free advice focusing on key elements of sucker herd efficiency, namely improving herd fertility, bull selection using EBVs and breeding and management of replacements.

Dr Weatherup, from Northern Ireland’s College of Agriculture, Food and Rural Enterprise (CAFRE), will lead the discussion, with input from EBLEX livestock scientists Dr Mary Vickers and Dylan Laws. There will be plenty of opportunity to ask questions.
