Join us at Bentley Ford Farm in Shropshire for an interactive lung scanning workshop with Shropshire Farm Vets.

During this workshop, Shropshire Farm Vets will demonstrate lung scanning techniques using calves from Betley Ford Farm.

We’ll explore how lung scanning can help farmers assess lung damage caused by pneumonia and understand its impact as calves transition into the milking herd.

Topics covered will include:

  • The causes of pneumonia in calves
  • Detecting lung damage through scanning
  • Managing pneumonia and its long-term effects
  • Key considerations for calves showing signs of lung damage
  • Understanding how score 2 and 3 lung scan results can influence future herd performance
