The animal health programmes that saved farmers €135m

Ireland hoping to attain to BVD-Free status

Once Johne’s Control Programme takes hold in a herd, it can cause severe problems which will take years to manage.

Retired Animal Health Ireland chairman Mike Magan has thanked all those involved in the organisation since its beginning in 2009.

AHI disease programmes are estimated to have saved Irish farmers and the agri-food industry at least €135m per year by reducing BVD and mastitis.
