Episode 17: Anna and Ian Wilson talking about using technology to improve sheep performance
Anna and Ian Wilson are mixed farmers (sheep and combinable crops) from North Yorkshire, and Anna also works for the National Sheep Association. They talk about their experience of using No Bacz Navel as part of the trial we spoke to Fiona Lovatt about on episode 4. They also use it when tagging newborn lambs.
We also catch up on the work as part of the AHDB-funded Challenge Sheep project and how they are using data to help them make better decisions.
This episode has been sponsored by No Bacz.
