This special bonus episode of Drench Wise Farm Smart, brought to you by Zolvix Plus from Elanco, dives into new research findings from a joint PGG Wrightson and PGGW Seeds trial, exploring how crops can significantly help manage worm burdens, support growth rates and reduce drench reliance.
The Country’s Rowena Duncum is joined by Elanco’s Colin McKay and one of the team behind this exciting research – Dr Jason Leslie BVSc from PGG Wrightson’s Technical team.
It’s a valuable listen for anyone wanting to farm smarter and stay on top of roundworm management.
