Welcome to our new audio article from Ceva Sounds Ruminants. The topic of today is Why vaccinating cattle protects the environment. A content developed by Ana Sofia Santos, Head of Research and Innovation at FeedInov CoLAB.

In this episode, we explore how cattle vaccination goes far beyond disease prevention to become a key driver of sustainable livestock production. By improving animal health, vaccination enhances productivity, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and optimizes resource use such as feed, water, and land. It also plays a crucial role in the One Health approach by lowering zoonotic risks and reducing the need for antibiotics, thereby helping to combat antimicrobial resistance. Through practical examples and scientific evidence, we highlight how better herd health leads to improved efficiency, lower environmental impact, and stronger economic performance for farmers, while also opening the door to future innovations such as methane-reducing vaccines.
