Learn how to stay one step ahead and become your horse's strongest advocate!

AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich reviews a paper published in The Bovine Practitioner with the first author Madeline Mancke from Kansas State University. The objective of this study was to determine potential associations between Cardiac Troponin I (cTnI) serum concentration of cattle at initial bovine respiratory disease (BRD) treatment with the risk of retreatment or mortality at 60 days. BRD is the most significant disease in beef cattle and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Developing prognostic tools may be valuable for managing individual cases. cTnI is a protein that is released into the circulatory system after myocardial damage and may be useful as a biomarker for prognostication of BRD cases. Mancke walks through the results of the paper which demonstrated that 8/318 samples had high cTnI levels and animals with high cTn1 concentrations had a significantly greater probability of not finishing the 60-day post-enrollment period. Cattle with high cardiac troponin concentrations at initial BRD treatment were more likely to have negative clinical outcomes but, in this study, very few animals had high cTnI levels. Mancke provides information about potential future research opportunities to better manage BRD cases in the feedyard.  The Bovine Practitioner is the peer-reviewed journal published by AABP.

Bovine Congestive Heart Failure. For me I've always assumed it was the same as High Altitude Disease or Brisket Disease, but in our cattle industry today where we see a push for performance and high growth, we are seeing it manifest itself at a point in time that is extremely costly to the feeder... right before slaughter. Dr. Kirk Ramsey and Dr. Paige Pratte with Neogen join me today as we discuss the concern of Bovine Congestive Heart Failure in our cattle industry.  What is it.  Where are we seeing it?  And what do cow/calf producers need to understand about its applicability to your operation as well as the heritability of that trait in your herd. So, it leads us down the road of utilizing our DNA testing ability to know where our herd is at, but it not just to add another input cost the buyers are wanting the information as well. Bovine Congestive Heart Failure. Are we overlooking its impact to our herd… to our industry… while a solution is this available right there in that DNA sample. #workingranchmagazine #ranchlife #ranching #dayweather #weather #agweather #beef #cows #livestock #cattle #productivity #carcussweights #igenitybeef #DNA #BCHF #PAP #superiorlivestock #cattlefeeders #cow/calf

There's been a 12% spike in bovine tuberculosis in Clare. Figures released by the Department of Agriculture show there were 1,310 TB reactors in this county in the first three months of this year which indicates a 12% increase on the same period in 2024. The rate of TB among cattle has seen a 38% surge nationwide and Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Martin Heydon, says "stakeholders are taking the necessary steps to control this disease and continue to work together". O'Callaghan's Mills farmer and Secretary of the Clare branch of the Irish Creamery and Milk Suppliers Association, Martin McMahon, believes tackling wildlife carrying the disease is the answer.

When it comes to horse nutrition, understanding energy is key to building a healthier, more resilient equine partner.On this episode, co-hosts Dr. Tania Cubitt and Katy Starr discuss important insights into horse energy needs, including:What “energy” actually means for horses and why it's different than you might thinkHow carbohydrates, fats, and fiber each contribute differently to a horse's energy supplyHow to match energy intake to your horse's work level and body conditionWhether you're feeding a top competitor or a trail partner, this conversation will give you more confidence in what and how you're feeding your horse.

 In this episode, Brad dives into the topic of polled genetics — cattle that are naturally hornless — and why it's becoming more important in both the dairy and beef industries. He explains what polled genetics are, how the trait is inherited, and how farmers can use homozygous or heterozygous polled bulls to reduce the need for dehorning. Brad discusses the growing emphasis on polled genetics by organizations like Organic Valley, highlights some top polled bulls across major dairy breeds, and shares his own experience integrating polled genetics into his herd. He also touches on the challenges of finding polled bulls and the slow but steady transition toward more humane animal management practices. Brad wraps up by encouraging farmers to consider polled genetics as a way to reduce labor, improve animal welfare, and align with consumer expectations.

In this episode, we detail the gut-immune axis, focusing on the protective mucus layer, antimicrobial peptides, and the role of lactoferrin in intestinal health. We discuss endogenous secretions and how lactoferrin functions as an antimicrobial, immunomodulatory, and iron-regulating glycoprotein, influencing microbial balance and intestinal barrier integrity. Additionally, we highlight lactoferrin testing and levels. We finish by going through supplementation as a phenomenal tool.Topics: 1. The Intestinal Barrier & Mucus Layer- The intestinal lumen, microbiome, mucus layer, epithelial cells, and lamina propria.- The mucus layer: antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and secretory IgA (sIgA).- Intestinal epithelial cells including goblet cells and enterocytes.2. Immune Cells in the Gut- The lamina propria.- Macrophages, dendritic cells, neutrophils, B cells, T cells, mast cells, and more.3. Antimicrobial Peptides & Secretory IgA- AMPs and sIgA in the mucus layer regulate microbial balance and prevent pathogen adhesion.4. Lactoferrin: Functions & Sources- Iron-binding glycoprotein, antimicrobial and immunomodulatory properties.- Found in mucosal secretions, colostrum, and more.- Intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) and neutrophils.5. Lactoferrin's Role in Intestinal Health- Regulates iron absorption via lactoferrin receptors (LFR)on enterocytes.- Sequesters free iron, limiting bacterial growth, bacteriostatic.- Destabilizes bacterial membranes, cell lysis, bactericidal.6. Lactoferrin Levels- Neutrophils release lactoferrin during infection,increasing its presence in the large intestine.- Fecal lactoferrin levels.- Fecal calprotectin levels.7. Lactoferrin & Candida Overgrowth- Fungal membranes.- Aiding in the inhibition of biofilm formation.8. Lactoferrin Supplementation & Benefits- Supports gut microbiota, epithelial integrity, and immunemodulation.- Bovine colostrum and as a supplement.9.

Wednesday, February 26 -  Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com shares the news affecting small farmers in America, including a focus on  the Senate's overwhelming approval of Brooke Rollins for United States Secretary of Agriculture, new findings that the avian flu has hit cattle more severely than originally suspected, and a report on the American Soybean Association and the American Sugar Beet Growers Association calling on the EPA to work with them to reform the endangered species act and how it applies to pesticides. Next, Doug introduces us to Claire Benjack of River Road Farm in Franklin, VA (RiverRoadFarmVA.com). Claire explains her farm is more of a passion project as they barely break even, but he priority remains to put healthy food people can feed to their children, which is a big reason her eggs are so popular — not only are they healthy, but she refuses to raise her prices. When Claire was 10, she asked for a farm. Her dad had been thinking about buying a farm on which to raise cattle. This farm in Franklin came on the market, so he bout it and had a short stint in finishing cattle. Up to a thousand head roamed the family acreage. The farm ended up being unsuccessful, so he moved on, and then passed away in 2001. Claire read “Omnivore's Dilemma,” a nonfiction book investigating the environmental and animal welfare effects of various food choices, when she decided to get into farming again. Claire sunk a bunch of money into fencing, started with 5 cows and sold those to friends. She slowly grew to where the farm is today, using money that her dad had invested for her. Claire says they never break even on the farm, and calls it her lemonade stand; it keeps her busy. Claire's husband had the idea of holding concerts on the property, and they gave all the money to the local food bank. They consider themselves more philanthropists than farmers. At River Road Farm, they care deeply about the food they eat, and that's why the farm abides by the philosophy of grass-feeding their cattle, naturally, in order to create the most wholesome and high-quality beef. A strict grass-only diet, as opposed to a grain-based diet, gives cattle a higher quality of life, which in turn provides a higher quality, more heart-healthy product. Lastly, Farmer Doug opines why smaller farms are better than the big agri-business farms and why respecting the animals and the land on farms is imperative to contributing to healthy, better quality food for our loved ones.Website: AmericanFamilyFarmerShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

Beef on Dairy: Genomics, Genetics, and Sire SelectionIn this final episode of The Moos Room's three-part Beef on Dairy series, Brad dives into the genetics and genomics of beef-on-dairy crosses. He breaks down the results of genomic testing on 50 crossbred animals, highlighting how breed composition influences carcass traits, marbling, and growth rates.Brad explains how new genomic tools, such as Neogen's identity profile, can help farmers predict carcass weight, average daily gain, and marbling potential early in an animal's life. While the test worked well for supported breeds like Angus and Simmental, results for Charolais and other breeds were inconsistent due to database limitations.The episode also covers sire differences, showing how genetic selection significantly impacts final carcass quality. Brad discusses his own approach to selecting beef sires for dairy cows—prioritizing calving ease and ribeye area over growth rate. He emphasizes that understanding sire variability is key to optimizing beef-on-dairy performance.Finally, Brad explores how genomic testing could help feedlot management, allowing producers to sort and feed cattle based on their genetic potential, potentially increasing profitability. However, the cost-effectiveness of testing for terminal animals remains an open question.Tune in to learn how genomics is shaping the future of beef-on-dairy production!

Beef on Dairy Research: Growth, Efficiency, and Carcass DataIn this episode of The Moos Room, Brad continues the deep dive into beef-on-dairy research, focusing on data collected in Minnesota. This is the second installment of a three-part series, where we examine how different beef breeds perform when crossed with dairy cattle.Key highlights include:✅ Pre-Weaning Performance: Limousin crossbred calves showed greater growth efficiency than Holstein calves, consuming less milk while gaining more weight.✅ Breed Comparisons: Angus, Simmental, Charolais, Hereford, and Limousin crosses were evaluated from birth through harvest. Hereford calves had the highest weaning weights, while Charolais and Simmental showed strong growth through finishing.✅ Carcass Data: Charolais and Hereford yielded the heaviest carcasses, while Limousin crosses had the largest ribeye areas. Angus and Hereford crosses finished the fastest, reaching market weight in fewer days.✅ Meat Quality & Economics: Most animals graded Choice, with some achieving Prime. Economic analysis showed that Charolais and Hereford crosses brought in the highest total revenue due to their larger carcass sizes.Next week, we'll wrap up the series by exploring the role of genomics in beef-on-dairy systems. Tune in to find out if genomic testing is worth it for terminal animals!

AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich is joined by Dr. Yung-Yi Mosley from the University of Georgia to discuss a recently published paper from the Bovine Practitioner to study the prevalence of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVD) on Florida and Georgia dairy farms. The purpose of the study was to do a follow-up investigation from a previous study that demonstrated a 38% prevalence of BVDV in those states in 2015-2016.  Mosley walks through a general overview of BVDV including diagnostic testing and clinical syndromes that may result when cattle are infected with BVDV, including the development of a persistently infected animal (PI). She emphasizes that vaccination alone is not an effective control program for most herds and that testing for BVDV in purchased animals and biosecurity practices are important. Mosley stresses that if a producer is introducing pregnant animals, it is critical to not only test the dam, but also the fetus when it is born. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the prevalence of BVDV in Georgia and Florida dairy farms and determine the circulating BVDV subtype in this region. The study involved 37 farms with a total of 57,000 cows and evaluated 90 samples. The study identified 10% of farms having a positive bulk tank sample. The type of BVDV found was Type 1b. Mosley discusses the significance of this compared to available BVBV vaccines. Mosley also discusses the findings of the survey that was administered to producers participating in the study.  Finally, we discuss how veterinarians can use the information from this study to screen bulk tank milk samples for BVDV. A bulk tank milk sample is a useful screening test and is accurate for up to 1,200 cows to detect a positive. Veterinarians should review their clients' BVDV control programs to evaluate potential risks and implement a comprehensive prevention program. Links: A follow-up investigation of the reported high herd prevalence of bovine viral diarrhea in dairy farms in Georgia and Florida.
