Its purpose
The purpose of this product is to enable the dairy farmer, beef producer and calf rearer to
keep their stock healthy and productive. The emphasis is on the causes of disease and
their control by management and stockmanship, so preventive medicine features prominently.
The principles behind such common problems as mastitis, infertility and lameness are
explained in detail and linked to effective control programmes. The same approach is taken
towards a full range of potential cattle disorders, broadly grouped according to age and
development of the animal from the young calf to the adult.
Already the standard text for a wide range of college courses throughout the world, the
considerable increase in detail makes this full colour and updated third edition an essential
weapon in the daily fight to keep intensely managed stock in first-class condition and to
optimise productivity. For the farmer it is an invaluable tool for dealing with the sick animal.
