Managing inflammation – tools for a resilient transition cow
At the previous conference in 2025, we learned that transition diseases almost invariably coincide with inflammation around the time of calving. If we could identify the causes of this inflammation, we could prevent a great deal of disease. That is why the VEERkracht knowledge cooperative for the dairy sector has organized another conference. With the help of international experts in dairy nutrition and inflammatory processes, we aim to pinpoint the causes of inflammation and encourage practitioners to put these new insights into practice.
The Goal
The VEERkracht Dairy Congress is organized to demonstrate to cattle veterinarians, scientists, nutritionists, and other advisors in dairy farming that understanding the physiology and metabolism is essential to comprehend the root causes of health issues and thus prevent diseases. To be and remain effective advisors, VEERkracht members translate this knowledge into their daily work.
The Congress
Renowned international speakers explain the causes of the inflammatory condition preceding most health problems in fresh cows and provide practical guidelines on how to prevent these transition issues.
Would you also like to be and remain an effective advisor? Then come to this congress. You are warmly invited on Thursday, February 11, 2027, at Burgers’ Zoo in Arnhem.
