Herd Health Investigations

Keeping your herd thriving.

Keeping Your Herd Thriving

About the Service

The health of your herd directly impacts productivity, fertility, and overall farm efficiency. Our herd health investigations identify and address underlying health concerns, helping you implement effective management strategies for long-term success. Whether your herd is experiencing disease outbreaks, unexplained production losses, or general health concerns, our veterinary team provides tailored solutions to improve overall herd well-being.

Using advanced diagnostics and real-life case experience, we work with farmers to assess herd performance, detect potential issues, and recommend preventative measures. For example, after investigating a sudden drop in milk production at a dairy farm, we identified a nutritional imbalance. By implementing a customised feeding programme, the farm saw a 20% increase in yield within three months. These success stories highlight the tangible benefits of proactive herd health management.

Why Does My Herd Need This Service?

Herd health issues can often develop gradually, making it difficult to pinpoint the cause of productivity losses or disease outbreaks. Early intervention and thorough investigations help prevent long-term damage and financial setbacks. Our services support farmers by:

  • Managing Disease Outbreaks: Identifying and controlling illnesses before they spread further.
  • Enhancing Productivity: Analysing herd performance and recommending strategies to optimise efficiency.
  • Developing Customised Health Plans: Creating tailored solutions to address specific farm challenges and improve overall herd health.

A healthy herd leads to better reproduction rates, higher yields, and improved farm profitability.

What to Expect

When you book a herd health investigation, our veterinary team will conduct an in-depth assessment of your animals and farm operations. This may include:

  • Disease Outbreak Management: Testing, diagnosing, and controlling infections within the herd.
  • Productivity Analysis: Evaluating factors affecting milk yield, weight gain, and overall herd efficiency.
  • Customised Health Plans: Developing practical, farm-specific strategies to improve herd health and prevent recurring issues.

Our goal is to provide clear, actionable insights that help farmers maintain a thriving and productive herd.
