Webinar: Fertility through nutrition in dairy cows
Dairy Global and Phileo by Lesaffre invite you to pre-register for a new webinar on "Fertility through nutrition in dairy cows". The webinar will be aired live on Monday 6 July at 14.00 hours Central European time. Register for free by clicking the button below.
Reproductive performance is critical to the profitability and sustainability of dairy farms. When dairy cow reproduction is optimized it will increase the amount of milk sold over the cows’ lifetime as well as increasing cow longevity and genetic potential. Thus, fertility is a critically important part of milk production.
This webinar will be hosted by Dairy Global editor, Zana van Dijk.
