Provita Hoofsure Endurance in another successful semi-automated system

 Pat Mc Guire runs an autumn calving grazing herd in Rock near Dungannon, Co Tyrone. He is focused on efficiency and managing his cows to target 7000 litres on 1.5 t of meal. When reviewing the herd health plan with his veterinary practice Parklands Veterinary Group an easy to use footbathing system was identified as being needed on the farm. When Digital Dermatitis (DD) first took hold 3/4 of the cows had a problem.

 

Previously the farm had used a plastic bath with ridges, however cows were reluctant to go through it no matter how many times it was used. Various products including antibiotic footbaths were used but they didn’t work.

Provita Promist – Clear the Air

Provita Promist should be used at housing or when new stock has been introduced onto the farm. Thereafter use as often as required, e.g. when more stock is added to cattle houses or during still weather conditions until air flow improves. It can also be used daily in houses that have permanently poor air flow. Promist will reduce ammonia, dust and lower the pH. It should be used above and around the cattle and will purify the air, the surfaces and the animals.

Footbathing with Provita Hoofsure Endurance made simple

The key message which sounded through the Vet Conference NI recently was the fact that current control measures were not enough to decrease the levels of lameness on our farms as a whole. David Tisdall noted that lameness had risen from 25% to 36.8%, and argued that the main obstacles in controlling lameness included lack of time and labour, it can be a tedious job and one that is overwhelming.  

 

Provita are currently working to make treatment and control of lameness much easier for farmers, offering a bespoke semi-automated system which can help make the task easier and safer. The system can be tailored to the farm’s specific requirements and each of the elements below can be customised to suit your farm. Provita also offer a HELP service, which includes free parlour scoring, farm specific protocols with the purchase of a certain amount of Hoofsure Endurance.
