Young cattle: Drenching and parasite control

In this episode of Anexa’s Podcast, In One Ear and Out the Udder, vets Emma Franklin and Travis Scott discuss why youngstock shouldn’t be forgotten when it comes to Trace Element testing and supplementation. They chat about supplementation options and how they should differ depending on the management system and whether they are needed for maintenance or to treat deficiency. They also talk about the importance of having a written youngstock plan alongside your grazing contract to ensure the owner, the grazier and the vet are all working together towards common goals to ensure heifers are in the best shape possible at calving to start a long, healthy productive life as a dairy cow.
