Why modern barn concepts for young cattle ensure the success of dairy farms - Dr. Elfriede Ofner-Schröck in conversation

In the latest podcast, "Agricultural Science – Knowledge in Brief," PD Dr. Andreas Steinwidder with Dr. Elfriede Ofner-Schröck from the HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein about an often underestimated but crucial topic: the husbandry of calves and young cattle.
From the animals' needs and modern housing systems to scientific findings, we examine how well-designed barn concepts can ensure the health, performance, and longevity of future dairy cows. The podcast also includes many practical tips from the new ÖKL advisory document. It's definitely worth a listen!
