A one-day workshop to develop a property-specific, whole-of-farm strategy for moving to and managing a non-mulesed enterprise.

Moving to a non-mulesed enterprise is not a decision that should be taken lightly by woolgrowers, in some situations it can involve significant changes to current practices. It requires commitment and flexibility, and for it to be effective woolgrowers need to have a robust, long-term plan in place to manage the transition.

Woolgrowers that attend the interactive StrateFly™ one-day workshop will better understand the tools available to them to choose from if they wish to develop a strategy to go non-mulesed. In removing the mulesing 'tool’ from the flystrike management toolbox, woolgrowers must rebalance the use and timing of the other tools available to them (such as crutching, shearing, chemical use, and classing and selection) to make the transition. Also discussed is ensuring woolgrowers have ‘buy-in’ from both people within their business and those that provide services to their business (for example, livestock agents and contractors).
