 ease Workshop

 isease Control and the Environmental Impact of Ruminant Farming"\n\n- with
  Professor Jude Capper from Harper Adams University (Livestock sustainabil
 ity scientist)\n\n- and Professor Ilias Kyriazakis from Queen's University
  Belfast\n\n&nbsp\;\n\nHealthy animals\, healthy people\, a healthy enviro
 nment\n\nA facilitated workshop for the Northern Ireland ruminant industry
 \n\n&nbsp\;\n\n Wed 7 Oct 2026\n\n 1:00 PM - 4:45 PM\n\n T3 Conference Cen
 tre\, House of Vic-Ryn Moira Road\, Lisburn\, BT28 2RF\n\n&nbsp\;\n\nWhat 
 might better ruminant health be worth to the environment?\n\nA sick animal
  returns less milk\, less liveweight and fewer calves compared to healthy 
 animals\, despite continuing to consume time and inputs and to generate gr
 eenhouse gas emissions.\n\nBetter health shortens finishing times\, improv
 es fertility and cuts mortality\, lowering emissions per unit of produce m
 ade by each animal as well as improving farm profitability.\n\nThis worksh
 op explores how large that sparing effect might be for Northern Ireland\, 
 and what it would take to capture it.\n\nWorking with veterinary and other
  interested stakeholders\, the afternoon will set out the core challenges\
 , identify potential solutions\, and begin to crystallise these into a roa
 dmap for the Northern Ireland ruminant industry.\n\n 	NIVA members – Fre
 e\n 	Non-members – £20\n 	Students – £10\n\n Buffet lunch provided\n
