Drs. Stephen LeBlanc and David Renaud join us to discuss the status of their work announced in February 2023 aiming to help Canadian farmers improve sustainability and herd health with $4 million in funding from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) Alliance program, in addition to four industry collaborators, including Dairy Farmers of Ontario (DFO), Dairy Farmers of Canada (DFC), Lactanet and Veal Farmers of Ontario. Alongside Dr. David Kelton, the research team from Ontario Veterinary College are tackling a series of 15 studies that target burning questions from the dairy and beef industries that require science-based answers.
