Join us at one of our on-farm meetings to help you take steps to enhance your herd’s mobility while cows are housed and at the same time boost profits and public perception.

Lameness is expensive, requiring additional time and treatment costs. It also leads to lower yields and a shorter productive cow lifespan.

These events offer practical, actionable ideas you can implement on your farm to improve cow welfare, even when time and resources are tight.

You’ll hear from a mobility mentor who will share best practices for identifying and applying the right solutions for your cows and learn how progress has been made at each farm.

What you will learn

  • The key factors affecting cow mobility while housed
  • Managing cows on concrete
  • Practical ideas for reducing lameness, including footbathing and trimming protocols
  • Safe cow movement through feed, handling, and housing areas
  • Benefits of the Healthy Feet programme
  • Lessons learned from the host farm

If you want to create a future where your cows move with confidence and ease, leading to happier and healthier lives, then this meeting is for you.
