In this podcast we hear from SAC’s livestock ruminant nutritionists Lorna Shaw and Karen Stewart. They discuss beef and sheep nutrition from grazing at grass through to planning winter rations and the silage you should be aiming to make for your class of livestock. They discuss opportunities to reduce concentrate feed use and the importance of prioritising classes of stock at certain times of the year who require a higher level of nutrition for maintenance and production.   Linked FAS resources: FAS Beef Nutrition: Beef Nutrition | Helping farmers in Scotland | Farm Advisory Service (fas.scot) FAS Ruminant Nutrition and Forage Analysis: https://www.fas.scot/downloads/ruminant-nutrition-and-forage-analysis/
