The cows tell us about their nutrition

The 4th edition of the book entitled: "The cows tell us about their nutrition"

Includes goat and sheep symptoms.

A unique and original diagnostic and feed adjustment method based on the observation of cattle: OBSALIM®.

For those who know how to read and interpret the signs displayed by farm animals, it becomes very easy to manage a herd profitably and without the occurrence of disease. Like the key to a puzzle, the OBSALIM® method will teach you how to decipher animal symptoms and to manage feed rations. These signs exist but you need to know how to interpret them; all of this can be read from the animal in a directly accessible way.

E.g. Presence of yellow scabbing: excess of degradable nitrogen ingested too quickly

Based on observation of the eyes, hooves, skin, hide, dung, urine and other indicators, you can establish a precise diagnosis of the nutritional condition and needs of the animal.
All of this data is factual and is an essential part of observation in the field. The herd continually provides us with physiological signals that are easy to recognise.

E.g. Licking and pHG Zone (area behind the shoulder) active: pH drop in rumen: acidosis peak after eating.

The 4th edition of the book includes: a methodological itinerary illustrated using examples; complete symptom data sheets; the fundamental principles required for good physiological and therefore high-performance cattle breeding; explanation of various foodstuffs, additional data sheets and wall charts.

The first three editions were very well received: 8000 copies of "Les vaches nous parlent d'alimentation" were sold and distributed to dairy farms and vets.

An excellent tool for diagnosing and resolving problems in feeding and loss of earnings they can cause.

A return to the fundamental principles of cattle farming through observation of the animals. By learning this method, you will gain a more critical and clearer approach, and you will be able to offer your animals the best daily nutritional support.

For rapid and unsuspected results in productivity and reproduction.

This book is a handy 21 x 15cm, is about 300 pages long, and contains a large number of photographs.
