Abstract

Veterinary consultation will involve several factors. Foremost is understanding the objectives of the producer. Veterinary medicine and health of course are important, but additional emphasis should be placed on nutrition, genetics, and management. Besides knowing the objectives of the producer, consultation will require a thorough knowledge of the total farming operation so cattle work can be properly scheduled. It is also important to know the personnel involved. Often times, changes are more easily made and new ideas utilized when implemented by the people more directly involved with the livestock operation.
