Discover how making the most of the forage and protein already available on your farm can improve feed efficiency and reduce reliance on purchased feeds.

Feed is one of the biggest costs on a dairy farm, so getting more from the resources you already produce can make a real difference to both profitability and environmental performance.

AHDB and the UK Dairy Carbon Network (UK-DCN) will be joined by livestock consultant James Husband (Map of Ag), who has more than 28 years' experience in cattle health and production.

James will explain how reviewing sward performance, forage quality and homegrown protein sources can help you identify opportunities to improve productivity while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

What you'll learn

  • How to get more value from your homegrown forage and protein
  • How to identify opportunities to improve sward performance and forage quality
  • Practical ways to improve feed efficiency and reduce purchased feed costs
  • How better use of on-farm feed resources can support lower greenhouse gas emissions
  • Actions you can take to improve both business resilience and environmental performance

Whether you're looking to improve forage utilisation, reduce input costs or understand how homegrown feeds can reduce emissions, this webinar will provide practical ideas and advice that you can take away and apply on your own farm.
