Johne’s Workstream

The effective control of Johne’s disease is an essential component of successful cattle farming.

The Myhealthyherd Johne’s Workstream is part of Disease Manager Plus, but has also been provided as a standalone module for some farmers taking part in funded projects such as SWHLI.

The Johne’s Workstream allows you to manage and prioritise the risks of Johne’s disease in your herd and work with your vet to create your own personalised control plan based on your own resources and likely levels of disease within the herd.

Herds that are infected will be able to reduce their levels on infection and those that have low levels of disease will be able to protect their herd status. Herds with low or zero prevalence have an option to use the Health Visa to sell their breeding livestock at a premium.

Watch this brief clip to see how myhealthyherd offers a solution to controlling Johne’s in your herd – fully compliant with the new National Johne’s Management Plan (“NJMP”).
