Issue Date: April 2024
This unit involves working under limited supervision across the full range of feedlot operations. Overall progress may be checked periodically.
This unit covers the process of providing feed for livestock and monitoring their health and welfare in a small scale or opportunity feedlot and defines the standard required to: identify a range of grain and feed types and qualities; identify premixes and weigh out, mix feeds and ingredients and identify basic mixing problems; recognise clinical symptoms (normal vs. abnormal) of disease or injuries; remove sick or injured animals and dispose of or treat in hospital pens; relate herd performance data to ration consistency; and maintain clean feed and water at all times.
