Winter Brassica Feeding Advisory
Southland farmers are being advised to keep a close watch on cows that have
been grazing on swede crops in the Southland region after reports of illness,
and in some cases death, on dairy farms. As a major supplier, PGG Wrightson
Seeds is working closely with the Southland farming community and other
industry groups to gain a better understanding of the issue.
PGG Wrightson Seeds has issued a press release today (copy attached) with
recommendations for dairy farmers that may be experiencing issues.
