Veeplaas Oktober 2022
Die Oktober-uitgawe van Veeplaas is nie net 'n fees van tegniese vee-artikels nie, maar bring oor hulde aan die geharde en betroubare Boerbok - 'n ikoniese Suid-Afrikaanse ras. Lees in hierdie uitgawe meer oor die veelsydigheid van dié bok, terwyl jy terselfdertyd bekendgestel word aan die boerderypraktyke van ons heel eerste Veeplaas Klimaatambassadeur, James Faber. Lees ook oor klimaatsverandering en hittestres wat kenmerkend van die warmer maande is. In ons voer-afdeling word gekyk na soutinname, lusernverbouing en vleisbokvoeding. Hierdie uitgawe bevat ook ons heel eerste rubriekblad deur die bekende dr Charlie Reinhard, ONkruidjie roer my nie! Die gesondheidsafdeling fokus op 'n magdom siektes en toestande onder vee, waaronder klamidiose in beeste, mankheid, en kriptosporidiose. Moenie hierdie uitgawe van Veeplaas misloop nie!
Stockfarm October 2022
This issue of Stockfarm contains a number of articles preparing our producers for the very difficult month of October, when grazing often does not contain the nutrients it should. We are also approaching the hot summer months and therefore heat stress is a pertinent subject. Read all about lucerne availability, salt intake, trace element supplementation, and enjoy a host of articles relating to animal health. These include cryptosporidiosis, lameness, internal parasites and much more. We pay a visit to the well-known Kroon Vee Brahman stud and we are given a glimpse into the categories in this year's exciting ARC Beef Performers Awards, of which Stockfarm is the official main sponsor.
