Farmers guide to Pneumonia

MSD Animal Health has launched a new and innovative guide for beef and dairy farmers on the causes, costs and the prevention of pneumonia in their herd.

It provides a clear understanding of issues such as risk periods, disease outbreaks and production losses. It facilitates the farmer in how to identify signs of pneumonia and what precautions to take. It also identifies the options when pneumonia does strike your herd.

With emphasis on both clinical (visible) and subclinical signs (invisible) disease, costs are analysed for a clearer understanding of the impact of these disease’s on farm profitability. See Pneumonia section for more information.
