Zoetis & Herefords Australia Webinar

26 February 2026

Presented by Lee Taylor, Senior Technical Livestock Manager, Zoetis.

This webinar focused on winning with weaners and the importance of pre-vaccination prior to feedlot entry. Topics covered included why good weaning management is critical for young cattle, why Bovine Respiratory Disease (BRD) is a key concern in weaners, how to identify BRD in your herd, and practical strategies to help prevent BRD on farm. Lee also discussed the benefits of pre-vaccination programs before feedlot entry to support animal health and performance.

For more information on Zoetis products and effective ways to manage the health of your livestock, please reach out to Lee Taylor on 0429 989 980 or via email at lee.f.taylor@zoetis.com.

StockCo & Herefords Australia Webinar

9 December 2025

Presented by Andrew Kearns, National Livestock Manager, StockCo.

With a busy weaner sales season just around the corner, this session will ensure you’re set up with the key insights and finance tools you need to make confident, well-timed decisions.

Andrew covers three important finance options that can support smarter trading and breeding decisions in 2026 and beyond:

  1. Trade Finance – Explore opportunities to trade cattle that deliver faster weight gain with less input, and how to adapt when feedlot space is tight.
  2. Breeder Finance – Why 2026 is shaping up to be the “year of the breeder” and how rebuilding breeder numbers is essential to keeping trade cattle flowing.
  3. Stock Advance – Avoid selling too early just to meet cash flow. Learn how Stock Advance can help you market livestock at the right time, not the rushed time.

This is a valuable chance to hear directly from an industry expert and ensure you’re well prepared ahead of this peak buying period.
