Lameness Part 3: Prevention

This publication is the third in the series of three Dairy Insight publications exploring lameness in dairy cows.

Lameness in dairy herds remains one of the biggest health costs (estimated at £11,057 per 100 cows), with the implications of a case of lameness reaching far beyond the costs of treatment, time and reduced yield.

Prevention is better than cure!
