For this week’s OviCast, we catch up with postgraduate student, Jake Delaney, to discuss some of the results of a survey he collected last year looking at ovine lameness in Ireland and assessment of farmer management.

Jakes gives us some background to the issues and his survey and we discuss the type and level of lameness reported and the increased levels of CODD.

Jake talks to us about correct identification and the impact that can have on control. We discuss management practices on farm to reduce lameness, prompt treatment, culling repeat offenders and quarantine.

We finish up with Jake summarising some of the key findings and other ongoing work in the area.
