This research program will benefit the nearly 1 million lactating dairy cows on 13,000 dairy farms in Canada, and many more in the global dairy industry, approximately one-third of which have their fertility reduced by some form of reproductive tract disease each year. While these conditions are generally not considered to reduce animal welfare directly, they are economically costly to producers, and failure to become pregnant will ultimately cause a cow to be removed from the herd.

这项研究计划将使加拿大13，000个奶牛场的近100万头泌乳奶牛受益，全球乳制品行业的奶牛数量更多，其中约三分之一每年因某种形式的生殖道疾病而降低生育能力。虽然这些条件通常不被认为会直接降低动物福利，但对生产者来说，它们在经济上是昂贵的，而且无法怀孕最终会导致奶牛从牛群中被淘汰。
