Respiratory disease is a significant economic burden for United States dairies. Although there has been quality research, there is a need to translate the academic findings to the dairy barn. In particular, there is a need to implement solutions in the context of the economic ramifications of disease management. Plans to combat respiratory disease need to be simple, implemented incrementally and require low 'management energy'. If respiratory disease is prevented at an early age, this will ensure the greatest chance that the animals will reach their full genetic potential to produce.
呼吸道疾病是美国奶业的重大经济负担。尽管已经开展了高质量的研究，但仍需要将学术研究成果转化到奶牛场。特别是，需要在疾病管理的经济影响的背景下实施解决方案。防治呼吸道疾病的计划需要简单、逐步实施，并需要低“管理能量”。如果能在早期预防呼吸道疾病，这将确保动物最大限度地发挥其全部遗传潜力进行生产。
