Heat stress in ewes WEBINAR – Improving the productivity and climate resilience of the Australian Sheep Industry

Drenching ewes with ADE (Maxivit) at Darren and Jodie O’Brien’s, Kyancutta.

The “Heat Stress in ewes ” project was undertaken across 21 producer sites in 2022/23 and 17 in 2023/24 involved supplementation of either an implant of melatonin (Regulin) or a drench of ADE (Maxivit) to ewes at joining over the Summer period. The aim of the project was to increase conception rates and twinning rates at pregnancy scanning. This webinar presentation highlights the impact of heat on the fertility of sheep in the Australian sheep industry and discusses the outcomes of this project and how this can benefit producers in the Australian sheep industry. The project was undertaken through the South Australian Drought hub, by the Davies Livestock Research Centre at the University of Adelaide. There will be a chance to ask questions following the presentation.
