Abstract

Cattle producers and animal health professionals are increasingly frustrated by the inability to reduce the impacts of bovine respiratory disease (BRD). Improved BRD control is difficult due to the complex nature of the disease; the complexity of cattle industry structure and function; and the imbalance of economic incentives for enhanced BRD control. Success in improving BRD control will depend on an industry-wide comprehensive effort to address lifetime animal health issues as well as correcting or offsetting imbalances in economic benefits and costs for enhanced animal health management across cattle production sectors.

摘要

养牛生产者和动物健康专业人员对无法降低牛呼吸道疾病（BRD）的影响感到越来越沮丧。由于疾病的复杂性、牛业结构和功能的复杂性以及增强 BRD 控制的经济激励的不平衡，改善 BRD 控制变得更加困难。成功改善 BRD 控制将取决于整个行业为解决终生动物健康问题所做的全面努力，以及纠正或抵消牛生产各部门增强动物健康管理的经济效益和成本之间的不平衡。
