Irish Farmers Journal Sucker page with Livestock Editor Justin McCarthy
It is essential that farmers participating in the Suckler Cow Welfare Scheme (SCWS) register, dis-bud, castrate and wean their calves in accordance with the regulations. This page has been designed to help ensure you record all the necessary data and carry out the various procedures within the given time frame. The 16 step registration plan will take you through the process of registering a newborn calf. The pre-weaning and post weaning guides detail what information you need to submit before and after weaning. Use the "weaning calculator" to help ensure you carry out the necessary tasks in time.
