Nichols Farms, again a first, is releasing a Bovine Respiratory Disease (BRD) genetic prediction.

BRD costs our industry $900 million annually in economic losses from death, reduced feed efficiency, and treatment cost. Nichols Farms is working and researching to put some of these dollars back into our customers’ pockets.
