Bad locomotion is directly impacted the animal welfare and consequently the performance of your herd and of your farm:
– Reduction to the access for water and feed both leading to a reduction of milk production.
– Increase the time on the litter so potential increased risk to contamination with environment bacteria as the udder is more in contact with the bedding.
– Increase trimmer costs and intervention on the animals.
– Decrease the general performance of the herd (longer inter-calving periods, higher culling rate…etc).
To ensure a normal locomotion of the herd, prevention is the key ! ✅
