� Breeding Season at Farmfield Agro and Livestock Limited �At Farmfield Agro and Livestock Limited, the breeding season is one of the most important phases of our livestock calendar. This is the period when our healthy and well-selected bucks (male goats) and rams (male sheep) are introduced to our does and ewes (female goats and sheep) for natural mating...
The Breeding
Selections
Stock – Only strong, disease-free males and females with good body structure, growth rate, and milk/meat potential are chosen...
Heat Detection
Our team carefully monitors the females for signs of heat (restlessness, tail wagging, bleating, or mounting behaviour)...
Mating
Once confirmed, the females are allowed access to the males for natural mating. This ensures a high chance of conception...
Record Keeping
Dates of mating are recorded to estimate kidding/lambing time and to track performance...
Nutritional Support
Breeding animals are given balanced feed, minerals, and supplements to improve fertility and conception rate...

We are also working on ensuring proper housing, nutrition, and veterinary care throughout this period...
At Farmfield, we believe that modern farming and organic practices are the foundation for a sustainable livestock future...
