Achieving zero calf disease

摘要

Zero sick cattle in a cow-calf business may seem like a lofty goal, but it should not be. We work with many A+ managers who achieve this goal year after year.Calf health begins at conception, where dam nutrition is of utmost importance. Shorting the cow nutritionally during any of the 283 days of gestation could negatively impact the developing fetus and make it more susceptible to disease after birth.
