WelFarm - 400 extra pairs of eyes

WelFarm

With farming, it’s relatively easy to find yourself in a cycle of doing things the way things have always been done.  After all, we’re talking about approaches that have been tried and tested over numerous seasons with known outcomes. The only issue with this approach is that quite reliably if you do what you’ve always done you’ll continue to get what you’ve always got!

Welfarm offers a different perspective, a new set of eyes so to speak.  With reliable animal health and performance data coming in from vets of over 400 farms around the country it allows you to benchmark yourself with the best in the business.  Not only that but you are able to leverage the relationship you have with your veterinarian to the best advantage.  Regular BCS and health monitoring visits from your veterinary team throughout the season assess key aspects of your farming business and offer insights as to what is happening on other farms in your region and around the country. 

This information along with ideas, strategies, and insights from your vet can be used to guide decision-making in a manner that can provide huge value to your farming business.  Some key wins we have seen on farms using the WelFarm program so far;

  • Reduced antibiotic usage
  • Reduced mortality rates in herds and youngstock
  • Improved 6-week in calf rate performance
  • Better herd BCS management leading to increased productivity
     

So with animal welfare and efficiency being the hot topics at the moment, why don’t you take control of the narrative and explore how your farm checks out.? You might find you begin to look at it through a different lens!
