Hygiene, welfare and performance on the dairy farm at each step of the production cycle

From an early age

Calf welfare

Young calves face environmental aggressors that can lead to neonatal diarrhoea, respiratory problems, infection of the umbilical cord, and so on. Mistral^® can be used to speed up drying and the time between calving and first colostrum intake, improving the chances of a critically successful first meal. Drying the umbilical cord closes one of the routes for pathogens and helps ensure good development for the calf.

During milking and dry periods

Reducing mastitis

Mastitis is a major pathology in dairy production, linked to environmental pathogens. As the main source of bacteria, bedding must be carefully managed to prevent this disease.

Foot baths

Digital dermatitis control

Digital dermatitis is a very contagious pathology that is growing worldwide. A Mistral^® foot bath keeps animals’ feet clean and dry to limit the development of bacteria responsible for this disease.
