About Homeopathy For The Herd
Product Description Over the past 50 years, a dangerous set of technologies has crept into beef and dairy farms and ranches. Technologists have succeeded in pushing the pounds of milk that can be extracted from a cow higher and higher and throwing pounds of weight on beef cattle faster. But it came with a price. The average age of dairy cow burnout has dropped for almost a decade. Infections are rampant. New diseases and health maladies have appeared. Drug use and vet bills have skyrocketed. The healthfulness of milk and beef has been questioned. In this breakthrough book subtitled A Farmer's Guide to Low-Cost, Non-Toxic Veterinary Care of Cattle, Dr. Sheaffer passes along his hard-learned knowledge - in language farmers can understand - of how to care for the herd in a healthy, holistic manner. Utilizing homeopathy - an effective, non-toxic form of medicine derived from herbs and other natural substances - as well as other healing alternatives, he will teach you to truly understand the cause behind a disease condition, and then how to treat the entire animal for that condition. Using case studies and practical examples from both dairy and beef operations, Dr. Sheaffer covers such topics as: creating a holistic operation; organics and homeopathy; prescribing; mastitis and fertility-related problems; and the Materia Medica, keynotes and nosodes. Also includes a convenient section that lists specific conditions and remedies. Whether you're a beginning farmer of lifelong cattleman, this hands-on guide will prove to be nothing short of a revolution for your herd. About the Author Dr. C. Edgar Sheaffer is one of the top veterinarians in North America practicing alternative care for ruminants. He lectures widely on innovative, low-cost, natural methods of maintaining herd health. He has consulted with operations small and large, and for many years has conducted herd checks for the Amish and Mennonite farmers of east-central Pennsylvania. He studied in Gettysburg College and Penn State, ultimately graduating from the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine. His life changed when he attended a seminar by British veterinary homeopath George Macleod, who later became Dr. Sheaffer's mentor in this specialized branch of veterinary medicine.
