Livestock Health Workshop

• Thursday, May 23, 2024, 4:00 PM - 5:30 PM

Cornell Cooperative Extension of Oswego County (CCE Oswego County) will be hosting a two-part agriculture workshop series focused on livestock-related concerns. The first part will focus on how best to maintain livestock health. The second part will address how best to manage on-farm animal mortalities when they occur. This two-part series is open to all livestock owners and beginning farmers, including cattle, small ruminants, swine and poultry operations.

The Livestock Health Workshop (Part 1) will be held at the CiTi BOCES David M. Stern building. Guest speakers will be Dr. Toby Pinn-Woodcock from Cornell Animal Health Diagnostic Center, and Dr. Patrina Ashley, regional Veterinarian for NYS Ag & Markets. Topics will include proper use of antibiotics for production animals (cattle, small ruminants, swine, and poultry), common diseases, veterinary client-patient relationships and the importance of antimicrobial use. The New York State Cattle Assurance Program (NYSCHAP), which is an integrated prevention program that develops farm-specific herd health plans, will also be discussed. There will be plenty of time for questions.

The second part, a Livestock Mortality Workshop, will be held on Tuesday, June 18, 2024 from 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. For more information and to register, please visit thatscooperativeextension.org/events/2024/06/18/livestock-mortality-workshop
