Reproductive performance is critical to the financial success of a dairy farm. Good nutrition, appropriate vaccinations along with proper management are three of the cornerstones, according to Dr. Doug Scholz, Director of Veterinary Services for Novartis Animal Health. He cites recent research into the use of modified live IBR vaccines at breeding time and in pregnant cows. “And the results have been a little alarming,” Scholz told Brownfield Ag News. “It drives home the point that when we’re dealing with pregnant females we certainly want to consider safety first.”
