Abstract
Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) remains a significant issue to farming around the world. Technology is now available that can be used to improve the speed and accuracy of detection, and it is important that we consider how this technology can best be implemented to maximise its returns. The use of antimicrobials in farming remains high on the agenda and this article discusses some of the key things to consider when prescribing for BRD to maximise effect and reduce the potential for the emergence of resistance. To truly control BRD it is essential that we consider the farm and potentially the industry holistically. At a farm level it is essential that all potential risk factors are managed to reduce disease. Further opportunities for reducing the risk of disease are offered by closer working relationships between farms and integrated supply chains as these can reduce the stress around periods of transition and also enable better control of endemic diseases
