Adjacent paddock feeding discussion paper
The increasing use of areas adjacent to feedlots for backgrounding and pre-feeding preparation of feeder cattle has the potential to give rise to animal welfare, environment, biosecurity, sustainability and public perception concerns for the Australian feedlot industry. This project will review these activities and associated regulations and industry programs, and prepare a discussion paper to better inform industry of the extent, implications and potential options to manage any identified issues.
