Vet Services has a close involvement with Hawkes Bay beef cattle breeders and finishers. Hawkes Bay is home to a large number of commercial beef herds as well as many nationally recognised stud herds.

From a veterinary perspective, the emphasis these days is as much on animal disease prevention as it is on actual treatment. By working closely with clients to identify their animal health and performance goals, we aim to develop farm-specific animal health programmes and strategies that take much of the guesswork out of their beef farming enterprise. In building such a farm profile, it leads us to tailor advice that is based on best practice, best science and focused on achieving great results.
