International Animal Health return as sponsors of Northern and Southern Beef Week

Thursday, April 04, 2019

International Animal Health Products have returned as sponsors of Northern and Southern Beef Week for the next two years.

International Animal Health Products CEO Chris Lawlor said the deal was more than just a marketing opportunity.

"We always want to try and give something back to the industry so from our point of view Beef Week brings a lot of farmers together, it gives an opportunity for them to sell their bulls off farm and we have developed a good relationship with The Land and also with a number of their customers," he said.

He noted marked improvement in the cattle presented at the events.

"We try to encourage farmers to better prepare their animals so that they have got a more even line," he said.

"When we first started out a number of those cattle towards the tail end, they weren't getting a lot of money for so you could lift those bulls and improve the value."

Field Evaluation of BioWorma®

Monday, September 10, 2018

BioWorma® is a feed supplement containing spores of Duddingtonia flagrans, a naturally-occurring, nematode-trapping fungus. It was developed by an animal health company in Australia and has been registered for use in Australia, New Zealand, and the United States.

A recent article in the Journal of Veterinary Parasitology reports on the field evaluation of BioWorma® for the reduction of worm burdens in horses, cattle, and goats.

Overall, the studies with BioWorma® reported show substantial and statistically-significant reductions in the emergence of infective nematode larvae from the feces of horses, cattle and goats. It is suggested that use of BioWorma® in these host species would, therefore, lead to decreased levels of worm infection in animals grazing pasture where the product is used and would provide an alternative means of controlling parasitic nematodes.
