Dairy farmers' experiences with adopting social housing for milk-fed dairy calves

Share:
Kuo et al. (2025) "aimed to describe dairy farmers' experiences of transitioning from individual to social calf housing using the Innovation-Decision Process, a framework that includes the processes leading up to, implementing, and sustaining (or discontinuing) a practice." The authors concluded that their "work shows that the process of adopting social housing involved changes in attitudes, as well as changes in farm practices and infrastructure."
