Training Your Team – Protect Herds – Elevate Profits

Proper training for farm personnel does more than just improve daily operations. It directly boosts animal welfare, enhances livestock performance, and increases overall farm profitability. When your team knows how to care for cattle correctly, your bottom line reflects the results.

To support beef and dairy operations, the UW-Madison Extension Dairy program is hosting an exclusive workshop: “Best Practices for Cattle Handling and Medication Administration.”

Why This Seminar Matters for Your Operation

Health product mistakes cost farms thousands of dollars every year in wasted treatments, stressed livestock, and reduced yields. This hands-on training bridge the gap between protocol and practice.

During this interactive workshop, farm personnel will learn:

  • The Power of Prevention: Understand why proper vaccines and medications are critical to herd health.

  • Storage & Handling Standards: Master the correct ways to store, handle, and prepare animal health products.

  • The Hidden Costs of Error: Discover the serious consequences of improper drug administration and product mishandling.

  • Hands-On Skills: Practice proper handling techniques in a real-world demonstration setting.
