Mull Crofting Discussion Group – Fluke, Worm & Scab: What You Need to Know
Join us for an evening with Philip Skuce from the Moredun Research Institute to explore current and emerging issues relating to fluke, worms, and sheep scab, both generally and specifically on Mull.
Philip will discuss the latest research and is happy to answer questions on topics that are unique to Mull, including wormer resistance, parasite control, and other local challenges. The session will also cover current research updates, disease control strategies, and opportunities to work together on future initiatives.
Soup, sandwiches, refreshments and home baking will be available during the evening.
