    Over the last two years, Welfare Quality® researchers have been developing a Lameness Control Programme (LCP) for dairy herds. This has involved reviewing recent research, developing and refining lameness detection and scoring methods, and consulting European farmers on their views on lameness control and the kind of support they would find helpful.
The outcome is a set of materials that will help farmers and advisers to investigate the scale of a herd lameness problem, understand the likely causes, and work towards practical solutions.
