Calf diseases and growth rates have a major impact on the economic viability of all on-farm operations. This can range from the direct costs of calf losses and treatment, through to the long-term effects on performance from birth to milking or finishing. Establishing the key factors specific to your farm helps you inform your actions and drive performance.
In this webinar, Dr Robert Hyde joins strategic dairy farmers, Anna and John Booth of Rhual Dairy, who share their experiences of improving calf health.
You will learn more about:
· Calf immune system development.
· Factors that affect calf health and productivity
· Creating an environment where calves can thrive
· Practically adapting existing building and management systems for better calf management from birth to weaning
