In this month's "Protecting Your Profits" webinar, Dr. Jody Kull from Penn State University shared how dairy farmers can use their farm's specific protocols not just as a once-a-year way to check a box, but how to develop them to prepare for anything that might happen throughout the year. She explained how dairy farmers can use these protocols to mitigate on-farm risks and seasonal concerns such as mastitis, pneumonia and metabolic issues. She also shared real-life examples from farms who have developed their own protocols to successfully treat and navigate illnesses within their herds.

During the webinar, Dr. Kull covered how dairy farmers can use their protocols, how to identify clinical signs of illnesses, what monitoring looks like on the farm, and how to address concerns, illnesses, and diseases before they happen. Listen now!
