Bovine fascioliasis with emphasis on Fasciola hepatica
Creators: name: Zimmerman, Gary L.
Publisher: name: The Bovine Practitioner
Year: 2013

description: Fasciola hepatica, the common liver fluke, is an economically important parasite of ruminants. Although infections in cattle are generally chronic and sub-clinical, the overall impacts on health and productivity can be significant, including decreased feed efficiency, weight gain, reproductive rates, immunity, immunodiagnostic tests, and responses to vaccinations. Acute infections can occur in cattle, but are more common in sheep. There are no pathognomonic signs of fascioliasis. Fecal examinations using sedimentation or filtration techniques remain the most commonly used diagnostic tools. In the United States, albendazole and a combined clorsulon/ivermectin formulation are the only currently approved products for treatment of liver flukes.

description: We investigate the equilibrium geometry and electronic structure of Mo$_{12}$S$_{9}$I$_{9}$ nanowires using ab initio Density Functional calculations. The skeleton of these unusually stable nanowires consists of rigid, functionalized Mo octahedra, connected by flexible, bi-stable sulphur bridges. This structural flexibility translates into a capability to stretch up to approximate 20% at almost no energy cost. The nanowires change from conductors to narrow-gap magnetic semiconductors in one of their structural isomers.

description: We present a time- and angular-resolved photoemission (TR-ARPES) study of the transition- metal dichalcogenide WTe2, a candidate type II Weyl semimetal exhibiting extremely large magne- toresistence. Using femtosecond light pulses, we characterize the unoccupied states of the electron pockets above the Fermi level. We track the relaxation dynamics of photoexcited electrons along the unoccupied band structure and into a bulk hole pocket. Following the ultrafast carrier relaxation, we report remarkably similar decay dynamics for electrons and holes. Our results corroborate the hypothesis that carrier compensation is a key factor in the exceptional magnetotransport properties of WTe2.

Dryodurgades

description: Genus Dryodurgades Zachvatkin
 Durgades (Dryodurgades) Zachvatkin, 1946: 146. Type-species: Agallia reticulata Herrich-Schäffer, by original designation. Dryodurgades Zachvatkin: Wagner, 1963: 1.
 Morphology. Head short, wider than pronotum. Hind margin of vertex sinuately curved laterally behind eyes. Ocelli closer to adjacent eyes than to each other. Transclypeal sulcus complete, lora often tumid. Head and thorax granulate. Forewings with numerous accessory cross veins. Forefemora with intercalary setae arranged in arched row, two setae of row AV stout, one of them long and prominent (Fig. 25). Hind tibial macrosetae PD 10±2, AD 7±1, AV 6±1. Hind basitarsus with one platella on distal transverse row of setae.
 Male genitalia. Subgenital plates without macrosetae, triangular, apically pointed. Pygofer without processes, caudal lobe rounded. Connective broader than long. Aedeagus symmetrical, dorsal apodeme and socle well developed, shaft usually compressed and with apical and often subapical branched processes. Gonopore apical or slightly subapical. Anal collar often well developed.
 Female genitalia. First pair of valvulae with sculptured area occupying more than half length, sculpture elongate, cell-like, closely packed in oblique rows, submarginal, cells more or less of uniform size (Figs 52, 53). Second pair of valvulae of uniform width except apically, teeth crenulate, very minute, ventroapical margin crenulate (Figs 54–55).
 Distribution. Palaearctic and Oriental.
 Remarks. Dryodurgades closely resembles Igerna Kirkaldy in the shape of the vertex and style. It differs from Igerna in the following features: 1. numerous cross veins on forewings; 2. face more coarsely granulate and flat; 3. pronotum flat; 4. aedeagus with well developed but laterally compressed dorsal apodeme and 4. connective broader than long. The genus is largely Palaearctic but two species occur in the Oriental region in addition to an undescribed species represented only by females from Myanmar (BMNH). The Palaearctic Drydurgades reticulata (Herrich-Schaffer) is also illustrated (Figs 565, 579, 594) here to facilitate recognition of the genus.

description: We provide a general method for studying a manifestly covariant formulation of $p$-form gauge theories on the de Sitter space. This is done by stereographically projecting the corresponding theories, defined on flat Minkowski space, onto the surface of a de Sitter hyperboloid. The gauge fields in the two descriptions are mapped by conformal Killing vectors allowing for a very transparent analysis and compact presentation of results. As applications, the axial anomaly is computed and the electric-magnetic duality is exhibited. Finally, the zero curvature limit is shown to yield consistent results.

description: The structure of weakly bound and unbound nuclei close to particle drip lines is one of the major science drivers of nuclear physics. A comprehensive understanding of these systems goes beyond the traditional configuration interactions approach formulated in the Hilbert space of localized states (nuclear shell model) and requires an open quantum system description. The complex-energy Gamow Shell Model (GSM) provides such a framework as it is capable of describing resonant and non-resonant many-body states on equal footing. To make reliable predictions, quality input is needed that allows for the full uncertainty quantification of theoretical results. In this study, we carry out the optimization of an effective GSM (one-body and two-body) interaction in the $psdf$ shell model space. The resulting interaction is expected to describe nuclei with $5 \leqslant A \leqslant 12$ at the $p-sd$-shell interface. The optimized one-body potential reproduces nucleon-$^4$He scattering phase shifts up to an excitation energy of 20 MeV. The two-body interaction built on top of the optimized one-body field is adjusted to the bound and unbound ground-state binding energies and selected excited states of the Helium, Lithium, and Beryllium isotopes up to $A=9$. A very good agreement with experiment was obtained for binding energies. First applications of the optimized interaction include predictions for two-nucleon correlation densities and excitation spectra of light nuclei with quantified uncertainties. The new interaction will enable comprehensive and fully quantified studies of structure and reactions aspects of nuclei from the $psd$ region of the nuclear chart.

description: Abstract: "This report discusses the design and implementation of software for solving systems of sparse linear equations. The motivation for this work came from the needs of the ASCEND (Piela, 1989) computer environment for building and solving complex mathematical models. The original intent was to use an existing software package such as MA28 (from the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority, Harwell) (Duff, 1977); however, an initial survey convinced us that a package to suit our requirements for an extremely flexible research tool did not exist.We were looking for software that had been written in a modular fashion, allowing us to change all aspects of the solving process such as matrix representation, and solving algorithm. In response to these requirements, we created our own software package which is described in this report. The report is divided into four sections, the first of which describes in detail the software structure and implementation of the solver. The second section describes the methods used for testing both the correctness and efficiencyof the solver. The third section discusses the development of the solving algorithm, and in the fourth section the solver is compared with two other packages: MA28, and a solver developed by Amoco (Cummings, 1985)."

description: Intruders on the Internet often prefer to launch network intrusions indirectly, i.e., using a chain of hosts on the Internet as relay machines using protocols such as Telnet or SSH. This type of attack is called a stepping-stone attack. In this paper, we propose and analyze algorithms for stepping-stone detection using ideas from Computational Learning Theory and the analysis of random walks. Our results are the first to achieve provable (polynomial) upper bounds on the number of packets needed to confidently detect and identify encrypted stepping- stone streams with proven guarantees on the probability of falsely accusing non-attacking pairs. Moreover, our methods and analysis rely on mild assumptions, especially in comparison to previous work. We also examine the consequences when the attacker inserts chaff into the stepping-stone traffc, and give bounds on the amount of chaff that an attacker would have to send to evade detection. Our results are based on a new approach which can detect correlation of streams at a fine-grained level. Our approach may also apply to more generalized traffc analysis domains, such as anonymous communication.

description: We study the effect of magnetic field on the bulk viscosity of nuclear matter in neutron stars. We employ the framework of relativistic mean field theory to observe the dense nuclear matter in neutron stars. The effects are first studied for the case when the magnetic field does not exceed the critical value to confine the electrons to the lowest Landau levels. We then consider the case of intense magnetic field to evaluate viscosity for the URCA processes and show that the inequality $p_{F}(e)+p_{F}(p)\geq p_{F}(n)$ is no longer required to be satisfied for the URCA processes to proceed.

description: We analyze $2+1d$ and $3+1d$ Bosonic Symmetry Protected Topological (SPT) phases of matter protected by onsite symmetry group $G$ by using dual bulk and boundary approaches. In the bulk we study an effective field theory which upon coupling to a background flat $G$ gauge field furnishes a purely topological response theory. The response action evaluated on certain manifolds, with appropriate choice of background gauge field, defines a set of SPT topological invariants. Further, SPTs can be gauged by summing over all isomorphism classes of flat $G$ gauge fields to obtain Dijkgraaf-Witten topological $G$ gauge theories. These topological gauge theories can be ungauged by first introducing and then proliferating defects that spoils the gauge symmetry. This mechanism is related to anyon condensation in $2+1d$ and condensing bosonic gauge charges in $3+1d$. In the dual boundary approach, we study $1+1d$ and $2+1d$ quantum field theories that have $G$ 't-Hooft anomalies that can be precisely cancelled by (the response theory of) the corresponding bulk SPT. We show how to construct/compute topological invariants for the bulk SPTs directly from the boundary theories. Further we sum over boundary partition functions with different background gauge fields to construct $G$-characters that generate topological data for the bulk topological gauge theory. Finally, we study a $2+1d$ quantum field theory with a mixed $\mathbb{Z}_2^{T/R} \times U(1)$ anomaly where $\mathbb{Z}_2^{T/R}$ is time-reversal/reflection symmetry, and the $U(1)$ could be a 0-form or 1-form symmetry depending on the choice of time reversal/reflection action. We briefly discuss the bulk effective action and topological response for a theory in $3+1d$ that cancels this anomaly. This signals the existence of SPTs in $3+1d$ protected by 0,1-form $U(1)\times \mathbb{Z}_{2}^{T,R}$.

description: With the creation of ultracold atoms and molecules, a new type of chemistry - "resonance" chemistry - emerges: chemical reactions can occur when the energy of colliding atoms and molecules matches a bound state of the combined molecule (Feshbach resonance). This chemistry is rather similar to reactions that take place in nuclei at low energies. In this paper we suggest some problems for future experimental and theoretical work related to the resonance chemistry of ultracold molecules. Molecular Bose-Einstein condensates are particularly interesting because in this system collisions and chemical reactions are extremely sensitive to weak fields; also, a preferred reaction channel may be enhanced due to a finite number of final states. The sensitivity to weak fields arises due to the high density of narrow compound resonances and the macroscopic number of molecules with kinetic energy E=0 (in the ground state of a mean-field potential). The high sensitivity to the magnetic field may be used to measure the distribution of energy intervals, widths, and magnetic moments of compound resonances and study the onset of quantum chaos. A difference in the production rate of right-handed and left-handed chiral molecules may be produced by external electric and magnetic fields and the finite width of the resonance. The same effect may be produced by the parity-violating energy difference in chiral molecules.

Escape of VHE gamma-rays from close massive binary Cen X-3
Creators: name: Bednarek, W.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We consider propagation of very high energy (VHE) gamma-rays in the radiation field of a massive star in the binary system Cen X-3, which has been reported as a source of gamma-ray photons in the GeV and TeV energies. VHE gamma-rays or electrons, injected by the compact object, should develop inverse Compton pair cascades. We predict the gamma-ray spectra and light curves for the parameters of Cen X-3 system. It is found that the gamma-ray spectra, observed at different directions, have different shape and intensity. The gamma-ray light curves, produced in the case of electron injection by the compact object in the Cen X-3 system, should have opposite tendencies for photons with energies above 100 MeV and above 300 GeV, i.e. the photon intensities increases with phase in the first case and decreases with phase in the second case. However the model with injection of primary electrons seems to be in contrary with the reported modulation of the GeV gamma-ray flux with the pulsar's period. The model with injection of primary photons allows such modulation with the pulsar's period, but predicts strong modulation of the TeV flux with the orbital period of the binary. Modulation of TeV emission with the orbital period has been reported by the early Cherenkov observations, but was not confirmed by the recent, more sensitive observations by the Durham Mark 6 telescope.

description: A pilot study was conducted to determine the presence of Toxocara vitulorum in beef calves (Bos taurus) in north-central Florida. T. vitulorum is a nematode found in subtropical climates and considered to be rare in the United States. This parasite is thought to be endemic among water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis), and 1 small herd located in central Florida was included in the study. A Sheather's centrifugal flotation procedure to detect parasite ova was performed on all fecal samples collected (n=463). Beef calves sampled were less than 9 months of age, and all parasite ova observed in the flotation were noted. Although T. vitulorum was not found in any samples, many other parasite ova were present. Results of this study suggest that T. vitulorum is still rarely detected in north-central Florida.

This study advocates for subscribing to thescientific method of performing research, namely, generating theories, conducting experiments to support or refute them, and refining the theories. The arguments in favor of this method are discussed in the two parts of the paper. Part I critically reviews General Design Theory(GDT), a formal theory of design, and discusses its relation to building experimental design systems. Part II of the study describes an experimental system that is built on the foundation of GDT and its experimental testing.The experimental system and its performance are used to suggest modifications to the theory and extensions to the experimental system itself. These important recommendations conclude one successful scientific cycle, thereby supporting the benefits from adopting the scientific method."

description: Two experiments were conducted to determine the effect of oral administration of a Megasphaera elsdenii -containing product at initial processing on health and performance of high-risk calves during the receiving period. In Exp. 1, 1294 crossbred steers (BW=262Â±1.3 lb; 119Â±0.59 kg) were assigned to a control (CON) group (no M. elsdenii [ME]) or a ME treatment group (100-mL oral dose of M. elsdenii) at arrival processing. All steers were fed a 55% concentrate receiving diet ad libitum, and observed daily for signs of bovine respiratory disease (BRD). There were no differences in dry matter intake, average daily gain, feed efficiency, morbidity, or mortality (Pâ¥0.34). There were significantly fewer first-time relapses in the ME group (P=0.02); however, second-time relapses were similar between treatment groups (Pâ¥0.14). In Exp. 2, crossbred calves (504 bulls, 141 steers; BW=443Â±10.8 lb or 201Â±4.9 kg) were allocated to treatment using the same procedures as Exp. 1. Calves in Exp. 2 were fed the same diet as in Exp. 1, and observed daily for clinical signs of BRD. Calves dosed with M. elsdenii had greater dry matter intake, average daily gain, and feed efficiency (Pâ¤0.05) than CON calves. Morbidity due to BRD was 31% less for calves administered M. elsdenii compared to the CON group (P=0.02). First- and second-relapses were not different between treatments (P>0.70), but BRD therapeutic treatment cost/calf was decreased (P<0.05) from $19.70 to $17.06 for calves in the ME treatment compared to CON steers. While there were no relevant clinical or economic differences between treatment groups in Exp. 1, dosing calves in Exp. 2 with M. elsdenii at processing improved performance and decreased the incidence of BRD.

description: The SST-1M is a 4-m Davies--Cotton atmospheric Cherenkov telescope optimized to provide gamma-ray sensitivity above a few TeV. The SST-1M is proposed as part of the Small-Size Telescope array for the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA), the first prototype has already been deployed. The SST-1M control software of all subsystems (active mirror control, drive system, safety system, photo-detection plane, DigiCam, CCD cameras) and the whole telescope itself (master controller) uses the standard software design proposed for all CTA telescopes based on the ALMA Common Software (ACS) developed to control the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA). Each subsystem is represented by a separate ACS component, which handles the communication to and the operation of the subsystem. Interfacing with the actual hardware is performed via the OPC UA communication protocol, supported either natively by dedicated industrial standard servers (PLCs) or separate service applications developed to wrap lower level protocols (e.g. CAN bus, camera slow control) into OPC UA. Early operations of the telescope without the camera were already carried out. The camera is fully assembled and is capable to perform data acquisition using artificial light source.

description: The term “clinical pharmacology” strikes fear in the hearts of many a veterinary graduate, bringing back memories of Socratic questioning in rounds as to the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic interactions leading to a desired drug effect. These were concepts and facts that must have been known only to the reader of an ancient scroll, hand-written in the fading ink of a long-dead language. But take heart! The happy little secret is that all the PK/PD interactions, mechanisms of action, and physiologic reasoning are valuable only if they help to lead us to the promised land of clinical efficacy. As clinical veterinarians, that is what we care about. It turns out that you are the best qualified person to take clinical efficacy data and decide if it applies to your clinical situation. All it takes is a system to evaluate the quality of clinical evidence, an understanding of the concepts involved in a little thing called Number Needed to Treat, and some introspective thinking about our own biases.

description: Mn-Ni-Si precipitates (MNSPs) are known to be responsible for irradiation-induced hardening and embrittlement in structural alloys used in nuclear reactors. Studies have shown that precipitation of the MNSPs in 9-Cr ferritic-martensitic (F-M) alloys, such as T91, is strongly associated with heterogeneous nucleation on dislocations, coupled with radiation-induced solute segregation to these sinks. Therefore it is important to develop advanced predictive models for Mn-Ni-Si precipitation in F-M alloys under irradiation based on an understanding of the underlying mechanisms. Here we use a cluster dynamics model, which includes multiple effects of dislocations, to study the evolution of MNSPs in a commercial F-M alloy T91. The model predictions are calibrated by data from proton irradiation experiments at 400 °C. Radiation induced solute segregation at dislocations is evaluated by a continuum model that is integrated into the cluster dynamics simulations, including the effects of dislocations as heterogeneous nucleation sites. The result shows that MNSPs in T91 are primarily irradiation-induced and, in particular, both heterogeneous nucleation and radiation-induced segregation at dislocations are necessary to rationalize the experimental observations.

First-pull treatment rates for BRD were significantly lower (P<0.01) in calves administered tildipirosin than those administered tilmicosin on arrival. There were no significant differences in BRD relapse rates, overall mortality, or BRD and histophilosis mortality. While calves treated with tildipirosin on feedlot entry had higher average daily gain (P=0.006) and lower dry-matter conversion (P=0.007) at 56 days-on-feed than those treated with tilmicosin, these performance differences were no longer significant (P>0.05) at 146 days-on-feed. Using current drug prices and based on differences in initial BRD treatment rates, tilmicosin had a net economic advantage of $6.85 CAN/head to those treated with tildipirosin on arrival.

description: We investigate the energy and phase relaxation of a superconducting qubit caused by a single quasiparticle. In our model, the qubit is an isolated system consisting of a small island (Cooper-pair box) and a larger superconductor (reservoir) connected with each other by a tunable Josephson junction. If such system contains an odd number of electrons, then even at lowest temperatures a single quasiparticle is present in the qubit. Tunneling of a quasiparticle between the reservoir and the Cooper-pair box results in the relaxation of the qubit. We derive master equations governing the evolution of the qubit coherences and populations. We find that the kinetics of the qubit can be characterized by two time scales - quasiparticle escape time from reservoir to the box, $Γ^{-1}_{in}$, and quasiparticle relaxation time $τ$. The former is determined by the dimensionless normal-state conductance $g_T$ of the Josephson junction and one-electron level spacing $δ_r$ in the reservoir ($Γ_{in}\sim g_Tδ_r$), and the latter is due to electron-phonon interaction. We find that phase coherence is damped on the time scale of $Γ^{-1}_{in}$. The qubit energy relaxation depends on the ratio of the two characteristic times, $τ$ and $Γ^{-1}_{in}$, and also on the ratio of temperature $T$ to the Josephson energy $E_J$.

description: We study the scattering of magnon boundstates in the spin-chain description of planar N=4 SUSY Yang-Mills. Starting from the conjectured exact S-matrix for magnons in the SU(2) sector, we calculate the corresponding S-matrix for boundstates with an arbitrary number of constituent magnons. The resulting expression has an interesting analytic structure with both simple and double poles. We also calculate the semiclassical S-matrix for the scattering of the corresponding excitations on the string worldsheet known as Dyonic Giant Magnons. We find precise agreement with the magnon boundstate S-matrix in the limit of large 't Hooft coupling.

Clinical efficacy of gamithromycin versus florfenicol for the treatment of undifferentiated fever in winter-placed feedlot calves
Creators: name: Van Donkersgoed, Joyce
name: Hendrick, Steve
Publisher: name: The Bovine Practitioner
Year: 2013

description: A study was conducted in Alberta, Canada utilizing 4 commercial feedlots to compare the clinical efficacy of gamithromycin to florfenicol for the initial treatment of undifferentiated fever (UF) in winter-placed feedlot calves. There were no significant differences (P>0.05) in UF relapse rates and crude case fatality or bovine respiratory disease/histophilus fatality rates between the 2 treatment groups. As a result, the cost-benefit of gamithromycin versus florfenicol was based on the difference in treatment cost between the 2 drugs. Using current market prices and a treatment weight of 750 lb (340 kg), gamithromycin had an economic advantage of $11.52 CAN per head over florfenicol.

description: The UH8K wide field camera of the CFHT was used to image 0.68 deg^2 of sky. From these images, ~20,000 galaxies were detected to completeness magnitudes V<23.5 and I<22.5. The angular correlation function of these galaxies is well represented by the parameterization omega(theta) = A_W*theta^-delta. The slope delta=-0.8 shows no significant variation over the range of magnitude. The amplitude A_W decreases with increasing magnitude in a way that is most compatible with a Lambda-CDM model (Omega_0 = 0.2, Lambda=0.8) with a hierarchical clustering evolution parameter epsilon>0. We infer a best-fit spatial correlation length of r_00= 5.85+/-0.5 h^-1 Mpc at z=0. The peak redshift of the survey (I<22.5) is estimated to be z_peak~0.58, using the blue-evolving luminosity function from the CFRS and the flat Lambda cosmology, and r_0(z_peak)=3.5+/-0.5 h^-1 Mpc. We also detect a significant difference in clustering amplitude for the red and blue galaxies, quantitatively measured by correlation lengths of r_00=5.3+/-0.5 h^-1 Mpc and r_00=1.9+/-0.9 h^-1 Mpc respectively, at z=0.

Implementing pain management into your beef cattle practice
Creators: name: Dewell, Renée
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 2021

description: Implementing pain management practices in typical production settings may present real and perceived challenges for US beef cattle practitioners. Convincing producers, and sometimes, fellow practitioners, that pain management strategies and practices may benefit cattle welfare and potentially contribute to health and/or performance benefits is not always an “easy sell”. Additionally, practitioners and clients may be concerned with the legality, cost, and feasibility of implementing strategies in typical beef cattle production environments. Provision of education and training, demonstration of their use in typical production settings, and communication of relevant guidance resources may empower interested beef cattle veterinarians to increase the use of pain management practices.

description: In what follows, we pose two general conjectures about decompositions of homogeneous polynomials as sums of powers. The first one (suggested by G. Ottaviani) deals with the generic k-rank of complex-valued forms of any degree divisible by k in any number of variables. The second one (by the fourth author) deals with the maximal k-rank of binary forms. We settle the first conjecture in the cases of two variables and the second in the first non-trivial case of the 3-rd powers of quadratic binary forms.

Ancillary bovine respiratory disease therapy
Creators: name: Apley, Michael D.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 2021

description: Ancillary therapeutics are often administered along with an antimicrobial for the treatment of the bovine respiratory disease complex. For non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), the majority of clinical trial evidence supports a clear effect of a more rapid decrease in rectal temperature along with some evidence for more rapid improvement in clinical signs as compared to antimicrobials alone. However, there is no clear, consistent clinical evidence to support that NSAIDs result in increased treatment success, reduced case fatality, or improved post-treatment average daily gain as opposed to an antimicrobial alone. It should also be noted that the lumping of all NSAIDs together as a group can result in incorrectly attributing or not attributing important properties to individual drugs. The publicly available information on steroids and vitamin C is much more limited. The only clinical trials involving ancillary therapy with steroids are either negative or neutral. Two trials concerning the use of vitamin C were reviewed, one showing no effects and one presenting a large difference in mortality during the subsequent feeding period, but without enough details to evaluate either internal or external validity.

Year: 2021

description: The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) Producer Education team works on the Beef Quality Assurance (BQA) and other Beef Checkoff-funded programs each day to ensure cattle producers have industry leading information and resources. Veterinarians can use these resources to build on new or existing producer relationships to enhance the care and productivity of the operation. These opportunities not only add value to your practice, but they also reinforce livestock veterinarians’ dedication to healthy animals and a safe food supply. It is important not only to the producer and veterinarian, but to the industry as a whole, that cattle are responsibly handled and transported, and welfare of the animal is always a priority. Several resources developed by the Producer Education team at NCBA are available for producers, veterinarians, and transporters to review for more information on cattle welfare. Producers and veterinarians are encouraged to review the tools and resources, get certified in BQA, and ensure they are following best management practices for cattle in their care. It is important that the education producers, veterinarians, and transporters receive is current and up to date, but not all groups have the time or resources to leave their operation.
