Boehringer Ingelheim Supports Healthier, More Productive Dairy Herds
Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health is supporting the 2026 FBD National Dairy Show, where it expects to meet farmers, veterinary professionals and others working in the dairy industry. The show will take place in Millstreet, and the company will have a stand at the event.
The company develops animal-health products intended for disease prediction, prevention and treatment. Its livestock range includes vaccines, parasite-control products and treatments used by farmers and veterinary teams during different stages of production.
Herd-health planning
Boehringer Ingelheim says disease-prevention work should begin with an assessment of the risks affecting each farm. It recommends that farmers work with their veterinary practitioners to identify those risks and prepare herd-health plans suited to their individual operations.
The plans can cover calf health, respiratory disease, reproduction, parasite control and udder health. The company also describes a whole-herd approach as important in dairy production, because management decisions at one point in an animal’s life can affect its health and performance at a later stage.
According to the company, herd-health management may include protecting young calves, addressing infectious-disease risks and supporting udder health during both the dry period and lactation. It says that regular planning, monitoring and timely veterinary involvement are components of maintaining animal health and productivity.
Support for farmers and veterinary professionals
In addition to its product portfolio, Boehringer Ingelheim provides scientific information, education and practical herd-health resources for farmers and veterinary professionals. The company says these activities are intended to help dairy businesses address animal-health challenges through a combination of innovation and industry partnerships.
Visitors to the company’s stand at the show will be able to meet its team and learn about its cattle-health products and prevention-led herd-management approach. Boehringer Ingelheim said it was pleased to support the event and looked forward to seeing attendees in Millstreet.
