Initially in the case of hoof complaints, we often only see the affliction of the affected animal, but in reality, the damage runs much deeper. Hoof problems can, for instance, lead to a reduction in the milk yield and can have a negative impact on fertility (longer periods between calves).
Hoof afflictions in cattle and sheep are usually the result of a variety of factors:
Accommodation
Feed
Hygiene
Production level
Breeding
Breed
In order to help livestock breeders maintain the hooves of their cattle and sheep in optimum condition, Intracare developed Intra Hoof-Sol Gel, Intra Hoof-Sol Liquid and Intra Hoof-Sol Bath. These products were developed in close collaboration with dairy farmers, veterinary surgeons, farriers and cattle specialists and have been tested extensively in the field.
Intra Hoof-Sol products are available in three forms - Gel, Liquid, and Bath. To learn more about each individual product, please click on the picture on the right.
