'Adequate trace elements optimise growth rates'

Liz Brown from Agrimin explains that supplementing lambs with trace ele­ments to ensure requirements are met can help ensure faster, cost-effective growth to strengthen margins, and reports on a new farm study demonstrating the value of this approach.
"Lamb growth rates are a key factor affecting margins, cashflow and profita­bility," Liz comments. "Faster growing lambs will help ensure target markets are met and that lambs are moved off quickly, releasing grass for the ewes in the second half of the summer."
