Our first issue of 2025 focuses on forage maize, as producers review 2024’s crop and begin planning for this year’s growing season. Variety selection and seed buying decisions are made early – well ahead of drilling in May. So we take a closer look at what they should keep in mind to optimise yield and quality and ensure they produce a highly nutritious maize silage to balance rations.

We also shine a spotlight on the latest dairy technology that’s helping producers to improve herd health, fertility and efficiency. There's also a wealth of new tech on display at DairyTech 2025, in February.

And we also have a review of December’s bull proof rankings by renowned pedigree breeder and producer James Tomlinson.
