Do you use caustic paste on your dairy? We want to hear from you! Fill out this brief survey, which should take about 5 minutes. All responses are anonymous and will be used to better understand how dairy producers are using caustic paste to prevent horn growth in their calves. An article will share aggregate responses so producers can benchmark their current practices. Survey responses will also be used to develop research projects to inform best management practices.
