    Enhancing Fertility Through Cow Comfort with Kevin Bousquet

    Clean, comfortable cows are happy, healthy cows that are productive both in the bulk tank and reproductively. Any stressor we subject a cow to will compromise immune function and shift nutrients away from normal biological processes, such a reproduction. When looking to improve conception rates and overall fertility on your farm, looking to improve your cow comfort should be the first place you start. We are excited to have Kevin Bousquet of World Wide Sires join us on this episode to continue the conversation on cow comfort’s affect on fertility, a topic he is truly passionate about.
