Tackling drench resistance requires both technical know-how and practical on-farm application. In episode four of Drench Wise, Farm Smart, brought to you by Zolvix Plus from Elanco, The Country’s Rowena Duncum is joined by Elanco’s Colin McKay and North Canterbury sheep and beef farmer - and vet - Angus Gibb. Angus shares how he’s combining veterinary insight with hands-on farming to manage roundworm challenges proactively, from strategic breeding and pasture planning to testing protocols and reducing risk from bought-in stock. It’s a valuable listen for anyone wanting to farm smarter and stay on top of roundworm management.
