In this Farmer’s Weekly Breed Focus Webinar, Santa Gertrudis experts Willie de Jager and Howard Hobson will draw on decades of breeding and farming experience to give farmers an informative look at the breed, from its defining characteristics and genetics to its use in commercial herds.
Moderated by Farmer’s Weekly journalist Octavia Avesca Spandiel, the discussion will cover adaptability, functionality, breeding-stock selection, crossbreeding, commercial application and profitability. It will also examine what farmers should consider when introducing Santa Gertrudis genetics into their herds and the future of the breed in South Africa.
Farmers will have the opportunity to put their own questions to De Jager and Hobson during the webinar.
