You’ve done the hard work, now make every carcase count 

From breeding decisions to butchery, this hands-on event will help you unlock the value hidden in every animal. 

Join farmers, butchers and market experts to explore: 

  • How to spot the right genetics for market-ready carcases 
  • Where value is gained… or lost….. on the hook 
  • Why parasites hit more than performance … they hit price 
  • How to match your stock to the right outlet  retail, high street or farm shop 

You'll walk away with a better eye, better tools and a better understanding of how your choices shape the final product. 

What to expect:

  • Hear it straight from the shop floor with live butchery demos 
  • Get hands-on with live animal assessment and carcase walk-throughs 
  • Use Farmbench to see the cost of carcase waste, parasite damage and more  

Book your place today and join us along with Farmer Network and Waver Wampool Rivers Trust, for interactive discussions and the chance to ask the presenters all your questions.
