Whether for milking or feeding, our cows always have to walk.
As the breeding center for Holsteins in Germany, already more than 10 years ago OHG took responsibility and started pioneering work against hoof diseases and lameness with the so called “GKUH program”.
Right from the start, OHG collected all available diagnostic data for the following diseases:
- dermatitis digitalis (Mortellaro) DDc
- panaritium
- claw ulcer
- white line syndrome
- laminitis
- limax (tylom)
Today OHG is in the fortunate position of being able to offer real “mobility stars”, who are increasing herd profitability significantly:
