Producer feedback to inform disease risk and vaccination initiative

An initiative supported by the Beef Cattle Research Council (BCRC) is looking to help reduce disease risk in western Canadian beef herds. As part of the process, project collaborators would like to hear from you.

The link below is to a producer survey which will ask you a series of questions to gather your thoughts on beef cattle vaccinations based on your experience in your own herd. 

Participation in the 15-20 minute survey is voluntary and responses will be kept confidential.  Individual producer feedback will be summarized in a report of all cow/calf producer responses, and this summary report will be shared with you and the industry. 

For your participation in this survey, your name will be entered into a draw to win $500

This survey will remain open until December 31, 2021.
