s2e4: Consistency is Key: Feedlot Nutrition, Health and Performance

In this episode of So I Herd, Prue Adams speaks with veterinarian and research scientist Melissa George from Bovine Dynamics about the fast-moving world of feedlot consultancy. Melissa takes us inside an early-morning feedlot visit, from horseback pen riding and hospital checks to autopsies, data monitoring and exit meetings with management teams.

She also explores the vital relationship between veterinarians and nutritionists, the nutritional diseases seen in feedlots, the role of emerging technologies such as automated bunk scoring, and why consistent feeding, testing and science-based decision-making are central to animal health and performance.
