Our motivations
Bovine Respiratory Disease (BRD) or
calf pneumonia as it is more commonly
known, is a considerable cost to the beef
industry. It can range from full blown
clinical disease with the subsequent
losses and reduced performance
to underlying, sometimes unseen
respiratory problems which may be less
evident but can be just as costly.
The loss of calves to pneumonia can be devastating and put a serious
dent in the profitability of a herd. But it’s not just the obvious
pneumonia cases that can be very costly. Many farmers see low grade
respiratory problems as a fact of life. However, although the disease
may be mild or even not show at all, underlying damage to the
respiratory tract can limit growth rates.
