Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1998
Health programs based solely on vaccination and treatment regimens are often short-lived and unrewarding. The basis of any successful ongoing health program is a working health management system. The key to the success of the system is a functioning record system that generates information meaningful to management.
