WEC table 10.12.20 – this is the last WEC table for 2020. Please get in touch if you are after any test kits or if you have any on hand that you aren’t using and we will arrange collection.
WEC table 17.11.20 – two entries for the past fortnight. One from Bigga and one from Biala with both recording low WECs.
WEC Table 3.11.20 – This past fortnight we received 8 WEC test results. We are still seeing some positive fluke results and so we have included a fluke factsheet NSHMP-Liver-Fluke. This factsheet was prepared by Animal Health Australia.
WEC table 20.10.20 – 4 test results submitted this past fortnight. Two Taralga tests came back positive for Fluke. I spoke with Catherine Culley this past week and she reported she is just starting to see worm numbers in tests creep up. Catherine assumes that the bulk of feed has been keeping the worm numbers down but she anticipates that numbers will increase soon.
5/10/2020 – We haven’t received any lab results in the last couple of weeks therefore no updated WEC table. If any members are after some WEC kits for testing through Dawbuts please get in touch with us via email and we will organise to get some to you. We welcome WEC test results from any lab that members are using – please email them in and they will be included in the next WEC table on Farming Forecaster.
WEC table 15.9.20 – The second edition of ‘Where are the Worms’ sees only 2 entries for the fortnight. Interestingly we have an entry that has returned a positive test for fluke. As always please let us know of any feedback on what we are doing here at the virtual TFS ‘office’.
WEC table 4.9.20 – As a majority of the TFS area has experienced a wet end to winter and as we move into Spring, the TFS board thought it would be beneficial to members to be able to review information captured from the WEC testing program on a regular basis. As an indication of what’s happening around the TFS area in regards to worm burdens, we will be loading a table with essential information from submitted WEC tests, every two weeks. At this stage these tables only refer to sheep test results.
If you have any feedback on these tables or anything else that TFS is doing, please get in contact with us via the TFS email address.
