“Why do protocols fail? Setting up on-farm processes for success” – set for Aug. 21, at 2 p.m. Central time (U.S./Canada). Marisol Orellana, Diamond V calf and heifer field product specialist, will lead this free, one-hour educational offering.
During this webinar, Orellana will help participants understand why calf protocols fail and how to build systems that ensure long-term adoption and success. Also, participants will discover how a strong farm culture, clear communications and practical tools can drive team buy-in and consistent protocol adherence. Learn how to measure and sustain effective on-farm processes that lead to stronger calf programs through real-world examples and actionable insights.
