Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dairy Australia Animal Husbandry and Genetics Survey (AHGS) tracks dairy farmer attitudes, behaviours and practices relating to animal health, welfare, fertility, antimicrobial use, and herd genetics. The survey has been conducted regularly since 2005. The results assist Dairy Australia and the broader industry to prioritise research, development, and extension (RD&E) as well as policy, identify targets for improving on-farm performance and ensure practices are aligned with community expectations. In July 2022, 400 dairy farmers from all dairying regions of Australia were interviewed at random via Computer Assisted Telephone Interviews (CATI). Quotas were set in each dairy region to ensure a statistically robust sample and data weighted to represent the true geographic spread of dairy farmers (see Appendix 1 for full details of survey methodology). The 2022 AHGS results highlight improvements across a variety of animal husbandry practices, including disbudding and pain relief provision, supplying first milking colostrum, and ensuring calves are transported at an appropriate age. Measures to keep cows cool in hot weather and lameness prevention strategies are almost universal on dairy farms. The survey suggests that since 2019, a greater number of calves are being raised for beef as an alternative to early life slaughter. Whilst knowledge of optimal breeding and feeding strategies for dairy beef production appears widespread, there is an opportunity to support dairy farmer knowledge of beef markets as well as carcase quality and performance. Despite positive results overall, there is a small segment of farms that are not ensuring calves are fed within 6 hours of being transported, and blunt force trauma continues to be used as a method of euthanasia on some farms, including in calves older than 24 hours.
