VIDEO: Know when your lamb is ready to maximise profitability

In this video, Kevin Comiskey, vice-chairman of the IFA national sheep committee, and Cian Condon, environment and technology advisor – drystock and goats at Teagasc, outline good management practices to help maximise profitability on sheep farms.  

Some key points discussed in the clip include:

  • Weigh regularly to monitor performance;
  • Become familiar with carcass weights required by factories to ensure lambs do not go over-weight;
  • Invest in good-handling unit facilities;
  • The preventive treatment of diseases can have a positive influence on farm performance.
