Webinar to focus on achieving good health records

Good records have long been recognized as a cornerstone of successful animal husbandry and are becoming increasingly important in the dairy industry as herd size grows. However, industry-wide standards for recording and evaluating health data don't exist.

During an upcoming DAIReXNET webinar, you will learn how to achieve truly “good” health records and use them to make health management decisions based on hard evidence (outcomes) from the cows rather than perceptions of people.

Register today for “Outcome Driven Health Management,” scheduled for March 4, 2013, from noon-1:00 p.m (Central Time). The webinar will be presented by Dr. John R. Wenz, Washington State University.
