Foot and hoof health is an essential component of herd management, directly affecting animals’ mobility, feed intake, milk and meat production, reproductive performance, and overall quality of life. Without regular monitoring and proper care, problems such as lameness, hoof deformities, infections, and associated productivity losses may occur.

ADF Biotechnology provides comprehensive assessment and technical support services aimed at protecting foot health and identifying potential problems at an early stage in cattle and small ruminant farms. Animals’ gait, hoof condition, housing environment, flooring, hygiene practices, and the incidence of lameness within the herd are evaluated through a holistic approach.

These assessments support the early identification of hoof abnormalities, infection risks, sole lesions, and other conditions that may restrict movement. Regular foot examinations and appropriate care practices help reduce pain and stress, lower the incidence of lameness within the herd, and protect overall production performance.

ADF Biotechnology supports veterinarians and livestock businesses in the development of preventive health practices, hygiene management, and suitable hoof care plans, together with laboratory analyses when required. Our aim is not only to evaluate foot health problems after they occur, but also to identify risks in advance and contribute to healthier, more productive, and sustainable herd management.
