@PriestleyFW @RhianepFW I'm a vet & PhD student looking to spread the word and get farmers & veterinary practices involved with my project about dairy #calfhealth and #passivetransfer. Please could you help me see I could share it with the readers of #FarmersWeekly?
@chris_cow_vet I've started a PhD entitled 'Measurement, assessment and improvement of calf immunity', I'm hoping to discuss the project with vet practices to see if they might contemplate getting involved. Would @DroveFarmVets consider my pitch?
I've started a project seeking to review the herd-level prevalence of failure of passive transfer in UK dairy herds. Looking to enrol vet practices routinely taking total proteins. There should be exciting benchmarking opportunities for those involved. Please DM if interested!
@metofficeHadOBS is there any way of accessing daily relative humidity data for the UK? I would like to calculate THI for the past ~10yrs as part of a project assessing heat stress in cattle!
