On the Hoof: Lameness in Dairy Cows in Robotic Milking Systems

In this podcast, Colin Mason Centre Manager and Veterinary Investigation Officer, Dumfries, picks up on some of the key messages from a recent Dairy meeting in Scotland. Hosted by Alison Braddock, Colin explains about the importance of checking lameness which can result in less visits to the milking machine, reduced rumination, and reduced feed intake. Colin examines the causes of lameness and what can be done to reduce the incidence of lame cows.
