Calf Health As the value of replacements continues to climb, the importance of calf health increases. CDCB is poised to bring calf health traits that address resistance to diarrhea and respiratory disease to the national evaluation system. Receive an explanation of the traits and research led by the team at USDA AGIL, with a call for more contemporary calf data to see that these tools make it to publication.
Hoof Health and Mobility Lameness continues to be a leading reason for culling cows. Learn about the combination of traits in development designed to give producers a genetic component solution to this everyday challenge.
