Animal Health Management

Sick animals are a greater source of microbial pathogens than healthy ones. Proper health care measures not only help preserve the health of the animals and prevent the spread of disease, but can also reduce the potential health risk from the manure. For example, since calves are a primary source of Cryptosporidium oocysts, good calf health is important for minimizing the presence of the pathogen.
