The Hale County Extension Office will be hosting a FAMACHA Card Certification Workshop on Wednesday, March 27, from 1 PM to 4 PM.
Extension Agents invite those interested in gaining skills in parasite identification, body condition scoring, proper smart drenching techniques, and management strategies for the reduction of parasites in small ruminant populations.
This participating who complete the training will be able to demonstrate skills that will qualify them for a FAMACHA card, which will grant them certification to identify and manage small ruminant parasite loads.
The program is free, open to the public, and requires registration online. Registration may be found at aces.edu/go/4030. Participation will be limited to 25 attendees per workshop. For questions on registration contact Lauren Shortnacy at 205-809-2297 or email lkw0016@aces.edu.
