Why is Digital Dermatitis a Concern for Dairy Cattle?

Digital dermatitis (DD), also known as Mortellaro’s disease or strawberry foot, is a prevalent hoof disease that impacts dairy cattle caused by the bacterium Treponema. As a highly contagious disease, it can spread rapidly within a herd leading to:

Health Challenges: DD causes pain and discomfort in affected cattle, leading to lameness and difficulty in walking.
Reduced Milk Production: Affected cattle may experience lower milk yields due to the ache and discomfort they endure, which can impair their feeding habits.
Increased Treatment Costs: Managing DD often necessitates veterinary care, resulting in higher expenses for treatment and medications.
Higher Culling Rates: In severe cases, the condition can lead to an increased rate of early culling.
Animal Welfare Issues: DD raises significant animal welfare concerns, as affected animals may suffer from chronic pain and a diminished quality of life.
Financial Repercussions: The combined effects of reduced milk production, increased treatment costs, and higher culling rates can lead to significant financial losses for dairy farmers, affecting their overall profitability and sustainability.

Addressing digital dermatitis is essential for safeguarding dairy cattle hygiene, maintaining productivity, and upholding animal welfare standards.
