Yorkshire: Suckler beef – health, nutrition and what’s next

Join us as we bring farmers and industry experts together to look at how the suckler beef sector can remain profitable, efficient and sustainable for the future.

The evening is part of our ‘Stronger herds for stronger returns’ campaign to recognise the value of suckler beef and build a productive and resilient future for the sector.
