Abstract

Trimming of feet is an art that is fast disappearing~ It is the number one factor in the prevention of lamenesses and should be done in problem cows at a 6 month to a yearly interval. Confinement, housing on hard surfaces, large herds, and acidotic rations have made foot trimming a necessity.
