Develop a BVD Control Strategy for Your Herd.(updated 3/1/16) BVD CONSULT is designed to help beef cow-calf producers minimize the impact of BVD on their herd, or keep BVD out of their herd if it is not currently infected. Please work closely with your veterinarian to develop the best BVD control strategy for your operation. You will be asked several questions regarding management practices on your ranch. Below each question, you will see this icon: If you are not currently performing each practice, but you are willing and able to start, then you should answer "Yes" to that question by clicking on the appropriate link. If you change your mind after answering a question, click on the "Go Back" link and you will be taken back to the previous question. You will have the option to save/print a report after you have answered all of the questions. This report will include how you answered each question and the response that you were given.
