Bovine Respiratory Disease (BRD) causes an estimated $800 to $900 million annually in economic losses from death, reduced feed efficiency, and treatment costs. Newly weaned calves are especially susceptible to BRD and other respiratory concerns. As a cattle producer, what are your options and solutions?  

Joining us on this episode of Feedstuffs in Focus to talk about trace minerals and immunity in weaned calves is Roberto Palomares, DVM, and Kevin Cain, DVM.
