In this episode of The Moos Room, Brad dives into a landmark new study examining the effects of short- and long-distance transport on the health, survival, and growth of pre-weaned dairy and dairy–beef crossbred calves. Drawing on data from nearly 392,000 calves across multiple farms and transport durations (ranging from 30 minutes to 24 hours), the study challenges common assumptions about calf transport. Surprisingly, mortality upon arrival was extremely low and unaffected by transport length. Differences in mortality by weaning (60 days) were also modest and, importantly, were driven far more by early-life factors than by time spent on the truck.The discussion highlights colostrum management as the single most critical factor influencing calf outcomes. Calves fed two colostrum meals had higher serum protein levels, significantly lower rates of failure of passive transfer, and were about 50% less likely to develop diarrhea—one of the leading causes of pre-weaning mortality. Other key drivers of calf survival included diarrhea, pneumonia, dam parity, gestation length, and birth season, with transport duration explaining relatively little of the variation in outcomes. Brad emphasizes that a calf's “destiny is largely sealed before the wheels start rolling,” underscoring that management decisions made at birth—especially colostrum feeding, dam health, and environmental stress mitigation—matter far more than transport distance alone.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich is joined by Dr. Angel Abuelo, AABP member on faculty at Michigan State University College of Veterinary Medicine. Abuelo presented at the 2025 AABP Recent Graduate Conference in Norman, Okla. on managing Salmonella Dublin. AABP members can listen to this presentation for free by accessing the online CE portal on this page or download the BCI Mobile Conference app from your device's store.  Salmonella Dublin is a host-adapted pathogen that results in high morbidity and mortality due to the systemic nature of the disease in calves and in most cases, the pathogen exhibits multi-drug resistance. This pathogen also has implications for human health as a zoonotic disease. Abuelo discusses the clinical presentation in calves is primarily respiratory disease and the carrier state that can be seen in adult cows that serve as a continuous reservoir to maintain the disease on a farm. Diagnostics should include multiple tissues from deceased calves that are necropsied. The best sample to submit in live calves is not feces, but aseptically collected blood cultures.  Abuelo discusses the nuances of treatment in affected calves and due to multi-drug resistance, response to therapy can be poor or lead to a carrier state in recovered animals. Although enrofloxacin is labeled for treatment of bovine respiratory disease, it is not specifically labeled for treatment of Salmonella Dublin and extralabel use of fluoroquinolones in food animals is prohibited by the FDA.  Prevention of the disease is multifactorial and includes all aspects of proper neonatal calf management including adequate and timely pasteurized colostrum, maternity pen management, ventilation, sanitation and nutrition. Abuelo also discusses the use of vaccines in cows and calves to manage the disease on endemically infected farms to prevent outbreaks. Continued research on managing this disease, including the use of vaccines and improved diagnostics, will be important topics for veterinarians and producers who are managing this pathogen. REFERENCES: Frye E, Jennings C, Kremer K.

The move came Saturday through an executive order. It directs both the Justice Department and the Federal Trade Commission to form separate task forces, each charged with taking “all necessary and appropriate actions” to look into the food supply chain. That includes examining whether foreign ownership in food-related industries is driving up grocery prices or posing a national or economic security risk. In the order, Trump said anti-competitive behavior — especially by companies under foreign control — threatens the stability and affordability of America's food supply. He pointed to past settlements in which some companies paid millions to resolve price-fixing allegations. The administration, he said, intends to determine whether such practices are raising the cost of living for Americans and whether they pose any security concerns. The President also said that if Attorney General Pam Bondi uncovers criminal collusion, the Justice Department could pursue criminal charges, including convening grand juries. The task forces are required to provide their first updates to Congress within 180 days, and again within the first year of the investigation. This executive order follows Trump's earlier directive for the DOJ to immediately investigate alleged collusion and price manipulation among U.S. meatpackers. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and Attorney General Bondi voiced support for the effort, even as reports surfaced that a previous DOJ probe into beef-packer concentration, launched in 2020, ended without charges. According to the Wall Street Journal, Rollins, along with trade adviser Peter Navarro and Homeland Security Adviser Stephen Miller, has recently met with Trump to discuss rising beef prices.
