THOUGHTS ▶▶▶ S Start with the future
taying on a good path – a path that leads to profits, performance and production – is vital for a dairy operation. While maintaining the desired results on-farm, it’s important to backtrack and start with the future of any dairy farm: youngstock. Calves on a dairy operation repre- sent the future. They are quintessentially the basis for a good operation. It is vital that from
the start of life, the calf is given the best chance. What are the key factors to achieve this? Turn to page 15 to find out. Since youngstock is such an important part of the dairy farm equation and lameness is one of the top issues on-farm, this edition also looks at how digital dermatitis can be kept in check in calves, page 23. Methane is a major issue – can eucalyptus reduce methane? See page 25. And finally, we have recently seen much media coverage about the world’s battle with coronavirus, which has led us to look at bovine coronavirus in youngstock, on page 21. To keep informed about the impacts on the dairy sector, go to
dairyglobal.net and look at our special coronavirus section where you can stay up to date. With many offices around the globe shut, businesses coming to a standstill and events can- celled due to Covid-19, now is the time for us all to focus on how to stay on the path of moving forward and on the future. Stay healthy! Zana van Dijk, editor Dairy Global
