Abstract
The authors provide a review of the foundations of a sound preconditioning or backgrounding health program for stocker cattle. A systematic approach to a health program for high-risk stocker calves has been used, with discussion of purchasing and arrival considerations; nutritional management; cattle movement management; prevention, control, and treatment of bovine respiratory disease (BRD); and the use of information management in the control of BRD.
