Cormac Browne faced a devastating TB outbreak, resulting in the culling of his 70-cow milking herd and losing decades of genetic progress.
He expressed hesitation about purchasing a different type of cow that may not integrate well into his existing system, complicating his next steps.
Currently, he is considering shifting focus from milking cows to developing a dairy calf to beef operation following the setbacks.
Browne's experience illustrates the significant challenges farmers face due to disease outbreaks, impacting both livestock and their farming operations.
