Complete: Identifying the pathogen causing neonatal diarrhea in pre-weaned dairy
Funding source: NNYADP 2020
Principal Investigators: Casey Havekes & Lindsay Ferlito
The main objectives of this project were to help producers learn the main pathogens responsible for causing scours in newborn calves. Another objective was to look at antibiotic usage for these calves and identify an opportunity for reduced antibiotic usage (i.e. when the cause of scours is viral vs bacterial). Please see final report here.
