Newcastle under Lyme: Taking steps to enhance cow mobility

Join us at this on-farm meeting to help you take steps to enhance your herd’s mobility while out grazing and at the same time boost profits and public perceptions.

Lameness can be expensive, requiring additional staff time and treatment costs, while also leading to lower yields and shorter productive lifespans for your cows.

This event offers practical, actionable ideas you can implement on your farm to improve cow welfare, even when time and resources are tight.

You’ll hear from mobility mentor Will Gratwick who will share best practices about identifying and applying the right solutions for your cows.

Then Sam and Tom Summerfield will share how they worked together to improve lameness rates at Paddocks Farm.

This event will cover

• The key factors that affect mobility while grazing
• Practical ideas for addressing lameness
• The benefits of our Healthy Feet Lite programme
• The steps Paddocks Farm took to improve mobility

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. 

Keep an eye out for further meetings in the new year, which will focus on improving mobility for cows during the housing period.
