Predicting Cumulative Risk of Bovine Respiratory Disease Complex using Feedlot Arrival Data and Daily Morbidity and Mortality Counts

Year: 2010

Type: conference-abstract

Abstract: Economic losses from bovine respiratory disease complex (BRDC) are substantial in commercial feedlots. The ability to estimate potential losses at arrival and during the feeding period would be valuable for health and economic management. Our objectives were to evaluate the use of arrival risk factor data and subsequent daily BRDC morbidity and mortality counts for predicting lot-level cumulative BRDC risk.
