This five-module course is designed to support learners in understanding the importance of creating strong partnerships between veterinarians and producers to enhance profitability and sustainability.
A participatory needs assessment, exploring the willingness of and barriers to producer-veterinarian partnerships to enhance small/medium livestock operations, was distributed to Texas producers and veterinarians. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected via online, open-ended survey questions and interviews. Responses were analyzed using SPSS and HyperRESEARCH to identify relevant terms, ideas, patterns, or themes.
