That will increasingly mean the integration of heifer calves from multiple facilities – a situation that has the potential for the spread of pathogens, devastating to animal health and grower profits. The Livestock Disease Interventions program is a comprehensive portfolio of cleaning, disinfecting, sanitizing and pest elimination practices that helps minimize the risk of exposure to infectious agents at critical points within a facility.
Ecolab has a comprehensive portfolio of cleaners, sanitizers and disinfectants, plus a staff of technical experts based around the country, available to help provide solutions for professional dairy heifer grower customers.
