Increase Your Herd Biosecurity - Embryo Transfer!

13th May 2014

Biosecurity is often associated to disinfection points. However, it’s a management system to reduce the cause and threat of disease being introduced into and spread throughout your herd. Embryo transfer is a perfect start to reduce the threat of disease through reducing the number of potential bought in replacements. Bought in replacements can be carriers of diseases such as:

BVD – Bovine Viral Diarrhoea

Campylobacter

Coccidiosis

Johnes

Lepto – Leptospira

IBR – Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheaitis

Salmonellosis

TB

Digitial Dermatitis

Diseases as above are very easily transferred but can be costly to control and eradicate. Take a look at your herd and count the cost! Call today for a consultation.
