Cooling the Herd: Effective solutions for heat stress in dairy farming
In this episode, hosts Ben Eagle and Will Evans tackle the pressing issue of heat stress in dairy cows, exploring its impact on both individual animals and herds. Joined by dairy farmer Charlie George and Kite's Tim Davies, the discussion delves into practical measures farms can take to mitigate heat stress and build resilience for the future. The team examines the importance of proper ventilation, water supply and shed design, while also considering the broader implications of climate change on farming practices. Chris Walkland provides insightful commentary on the current milk market, linking economic pressures to the challenges faced by farmers during extreme weather conditions.
