Another Cow Falls Ill in Denmark in 2026 Due to Bovaer
A Danish farmer writes: We’ve been participating in a trial where veterinarians and others were involved for 14 days prior to the start of the Bovaer treatment and for the first 14 days of the trial. But they’re stopping the trial as early as tomorrow because they can see that it’s having a major negative effect on the cows and because we’ve asked them to stop.
The trial is being conducted in collaboration with Seges and the manufacturer of Bovaer, DSM-Firmenich. Fourteen days before the start, blood samples, urine samples, milk samples, etc., were taken.
Feed samples were taken every day, and we kept track of how much the cows ate. The veterinarians examined all cows showing signs of illness. After the trial began, things went well for the first four days, but then things started to go wrong.
On the sixth day—that is, today—the veterinarian has already examined six sick cows. The one in this video cannot stand up; the other five have diarrhea and are generally unwell.
Last year, when we used Bovaer, all our time was spent caring for sick cows.
Is this really what politicians and consumers want?
How far do you want us to go, and where does animal welfare fit into all of this?
