The 'COWSIGNALS: What are your cows telling you?' event is one of many events listed. View all events.
As a dairy farmer you visually check your cows several times each day... but what do you see and what may you be missing?
Cows indicate their health and comfort through behaviour, posture and by displaying physical traits. When recognised and understood, these signals will help you to optimise the health and productivity of your cows and hence the profitability of your business.
These practical workshops will employ CowSignals Master Trainers to
Share the CowSignals concepts
Focus attention on key indicators of underlying problems
Highlight Risk areas and Risk animals
Encourage practical solutions to common problems
Outcomes:
By taking part in this workshop you will
improve your understanding of what your cows are telling you
be empowered to reassess your cows environment from a fresh perspective
potentially improve the health and performance of your cows and the profitability of your business

A practical on-farm session, limited to a maximum of 15 attendees. Aimed at farmers and herdspeople with herds that are housed for a large proportion of the year. Lunch and refreshments are included
