Increasingly strict governmental standards affecting food safety and animal welfare have meant farmers in the dairy industry must work even more closely with veterinarians to ensure best practices for environmental, human and animal health are followed. On this show, Dr. Ricardo Chebel, a veterinarian who conducts research in dairy cow management, will discuss what scientists are currently talking about in this important area and what the public needs to know.
