Hoof Trimming DairySmid at the International Symposium and International Conference on Lameness in Ruminants 16-20 September – Venice 2024
24 years after Parma 2000, the International Symposium and International Conference on Lameness in Ruminants (respectively the 14th and 22nd) returns to Italy. We are extremely grateful that in Tokyo friends and colleagues enthusiastically welcomed the Italian candidacy. Venice was chosen for various reasons, first of all for its atmosphere of mystery and magic which will make your stay pleasant and interesting.
The central themes of the conference will be the improvement of “mobility” and animal welfare, aspects closely connected to productivity and profitability.
With the awareness of all this, the conference will be structured with in-depth workshops on various topics of practical interest. Then there will be several keynote lectures on very relevant topics such as cow comfort, hoof trimming, infectious diseases, therapeutic options environmentally friendly, new diagnostic tools (role of artificial intelligence against Digital Dermatitis) non-foot limb injuries and others… We will reserve a large space dedicated to free presentations and posters. The final day will be organised in a typical farm of the area with various practical workshops.
Riaan van Zyl – Operations Director of Hoof Trimming DairySmid attended this Symposium to remain up to date with Lameness research, trends, treatment and technology.
Most informative and time well spent!
