Turning data into action! Here one of our calf health club members are having their bi-annual calf health visit. We use this time to tweak any areas that need improving and plan for the next 6 months. #biggerbetterbeasts #calfmatters 💪 🐮 🐄

Can you tell what’s going on here? This is how we perform liver biopsies in cattle. Collecting a tiny piece of liver is the most accurate way to check for levels of certain minerals, such as copper and cobalt. Copper is essential for building strong bones and connective tissues, so the cow’s demand is highest during the last trimester of pregnancy, when the unborn calf skeleton is growing at its fastest!
