The Causes and Consequences of Stress on Animal Production - What is the Real Cost?

10th March 12:00 to 5:00 - Ballarat Victoria

12th March 12:00 to 5:00 - Toowoomba

Featured speakers

  • Professor Lance Baumgard

    Iowa State University

    A global thought leader in environmental physiology, Prof. Baumgard will present his latest 2025 research on "The Stress Umbrella". He will explain how diverse stressors—from heat to feed restriction—share a common pathway: a compromised gut barrier ("Leaky Gut") that triggers the immune system to hoard glucose, robbing the animal of energy needed for milk and muscle production.

  • Dr Charlie Elrod

    Natural Biologics inc.

    With over 40 years of experience as an animal scientist and entrepreneur, Dr. Elrod advocates for "Solutions by Nature". A former Cornell University researcher and extension faculty member, he bridges the gap between scientific integrity and practical, natural solutions to manage risk and enhance herd resilience without relying on antibiotics.

  • Dr Charlie Chase

    Canterbury Ingredients Pty Ltd

    Dr. Chase brings a unique perspective bridging veterinary medicine and nutritional science. A specialist in dairy herd health and reproduction, his work focuses on "bespoke" herd health strategies that integrate mineral nutrition with cow comfort to optimize milk solids and farm profitability.
