It is entirely possible to get rid of BVD, it just needs is the desire to do it, a basic understanding of transmission and a helpful vet.
Over the next few months, the NFU will be building up a series of information notes, including farmer case studies illustrating practical tips, hints and recommendations.
The first document provides a basic description of the disease, a suggested four-stage eradication strategy and a description of the different tests. It can be found here: http://www.nfuonline.com/News/Campaign-targets-BVD/
