Why should I trim?

A strong hoof health program has been shown to lead to increased milk production and reproduction, among other benefits.
When should I trim?
Most farms set up hoof trimming programs with a twice a year approach with the addition of therapeutic trimming to cows displaying signs of overt lameness. Discussing with your veterinarian based on the needs of your cattle to determine the most appropriate timing for your herd.
