Description

Headlocks can be an incredibly useful tool on the dairy. However, when cows are restrained for too long in headlocks, it's time taken away from laying down and resting, and ultimately producing milk.

Join Dr. Rick Grant, former President of the William H. Miner Agricultural Research Institute, as we discuss the delicate balance between maximizing efficiency and ensuring the welfare of dairy cows when using self-lock systems. We'll explore best practices for managing self-locks to promote optimal productivity while prioritizing the health and comfort of your herd.
