Cattle Station Classroom

Welcome back to the Cattle Station Classroom.    In this episode we’re going to chat to a station owner about early weaning. Now, it isn’t the first time we’ve spoken about early weaning on this podcast, so if you want to refresh your memory, check out some of our earlier episodes on nutrition and breeding.   We’d also like to disclose that the manufacturer of the product referred to in this episode, has been a long-term sponsor of the Central Station platform. Additionally, our guest today is Haydn Sale, husband of Jane Sale, the mastermind behind Central Station. So, there are a few connections there, and we wanted to be clear about those. Jane and Haydn have been using the Milne early weaner pellets from before Central Station existed, and they certainly don’t give testimonials to products or services they believe in – but in this day and age, we wanted to make sure we really made that clear.   We’d also like to note that by recording an episode on early weaning, we aren’t promoting it as the one and only practice producers should undertake. As you’ll hear us say in the episode, it’s horses for courses, some people do it year in year out, and others use it as a tool when needed. As always, we recommend you do your due diligence, including seeking advice from your nutritionist, veterinarian, other consultants, and pastoralists, before changing your management program – same as you would before making any other changes.  ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Welcome back to another “Station Stickybeak” episode. This series was created to share an insight into why pastoralists do what they do, given their circumstances – whether it be location, country type, rainfall zone, infrastructure, ownership model, market, or any of the many other factors influencing management decisions. In each Station Stickybeak episode I’ll chat to Station owners and managers about a range of topics, broadly covering country, infrastructure, cattle, and people to show that there are many ways to achieve positive outcomes for people, livestock, the land and business. In this episode I sit down with Sean D'Arcy, who owns Lyndon Station on the boundary of the Pilbara and Gascoyne regions of Western Australia. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
