Ceva animal health has developed a system for sorting cows eligible for deworming. The objective: to carry out selective rather than systematic treatment.
“The automated TRI (Individualized Reasoned Technique) sheet makes it possible to generate, from dairy performance data, the list of priority dairy cows at a given time. vermifugation at the start of the barn, the classic period of taking charge of the parasitism for these animals. » The Animal Health Company Something created this tool with the aim of better rationalizing pest control treatments.
Concretely, how does it work? Accompanied by his veterinarian, the breeder enters the dairy performance data of his herd and the tool automatically produces the list of cows eligible for the selective treatment. Even more striking, it also quantifies the impacts of the approach (economic and environmental).
“This virtuous service makes it possible to respond to three challenges:
– improve the return on investment by targeting animals at risk (simulation of margin gain for the breeder),
– slow down the development of resistance of worms to dewormers,
– reduce the environmental impact by rationalizing the exposure of the herd to the molecule (simulation of evolution of I2E: indicator of exposure to endectocides). »
