A Planning Calendar for Beef Cattle Herd Health

D.L. Step and, Elisabeth Giedt (February, 2017)

Summary

Developing a sound and practical commercial beef cow-calf herd health program requires more than just obtaining a recipe from a cookbook, because production objectives may vary considerably between individual producers. Producers with knowledge about the production cycle on their premise should be working with veterinarians who have expertise and interest in disease development, physiology and biology. Herd health programs must be customized to meet the needs of individual producers.
