OviCast

On this week’s OviCast podcast, we’re joined by postgraduate student, Jake Delaney, and Teagasc Researcher, Dr Frank Campion, to discuss a new project that aims to examine lameness and associated issues on Irish farms. 
 
Jake first outlines the common causes and issues around lameness, while Frank discusses the impact it has on performance and some of the practical control issues that occur at farm level. 
 
Jake explains what they will be examining in the study and highlights an online survey that is currently available and that he encourages farmers to complete.
 
The survey can be accessed here:
