SUMMARY:HFNZ Webinar - Parasites in Adult Dairy Cattle: Does control make sense/cents?
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Tuesday\, 17 June 2025 at 7:00 PM for our HFNZ and Boehringer Ingelheim Webinar\, Parasites in Adult Dairy Cattle: Does Control Make Sense/Cents?\, featuring special guest Dr. Carl Eden from Boehringer Ingelheim. \nIn this session\, Dr. Eden will explore the benefits of using EPRINEX® Pour-On to treat gastrointestinal parasites in dairy cattle. You’ll discover how effective parasite control can significantly improve herd health\, milk yield\, and grazing behaviour. Backed by global and local trials—including studies from New Zealand—EPRINEX® has demonstrated proven efficacy in reducing the impact of gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN). \nWith over 20 years of experience in veterinary medicine and corporate leadership\, Dr. Eden brings a wealth of knowledge to this discussion. As Technical Services Veterinary Manager for Boehringer Ingelheim ANZ\, he is passionate about empowering veterinary professionals with practical\, welfare-focused solutions. \nDon’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights and practical tips to optimise your dairy farm’s productivity. \nRegister now to secure your spot! (click here) \nStay updated by checking out our Facebook event here. \nWe look forward to your participation in this informative webinar!
