Salmonella

Salmonella outbreaks in herds can be devastating, and given the wet spring across the country, it is a grim reality for some farmers at the moment.
In this episode, hear from a vet managing Salmonella outbreaks in Southland; two Veterinary Technical Advisors from MSD Animal Health about how to prevent a Salmonella outbreak on your farm; and a Waikato dairy farmer about how she managed an outbreak on her farm during the dry period, and what she’s doing now to prevent it happening again.

When Matt and Jennifer Davison got a call from their grazier to say there was a chance their cows had been exposed to Salmonella they had no idea the heartbreak and stress that lay around the corner. Anne Lee reports.
