Episode 273 - Seeing Lameness: How Camera Technology is Changing Dairy Cow Care - UMN Extension's The Moos Room

In this episode of The Moos Room, we dive into cutting-edge research on a camera-based technology for detecting lameness in dairy cattle. Lameness is a significant issue impacting animal welfare and the economic sustainability of dairy farms. We discuss a recent study that evaluated how autonomous locomotion scoring aligns with hoof health data, highlighting its potential for early lesion detection. Tune in as we explore what this means for improving dairy herd health and minimizing labor-intensive monitoring on farms.
