What is Dehorning and Why?

Dehorning is a common practice in cattle farming aimed at removing the horns of domestic cattle for safety, animal welfare, and ease of herd management. When performed correctly, this intervention helps minimize the risk of accidental injuries among animals, livestock personnel, and the farm environment.

The dehorning process is usually carried out when the cattle are still young, as it is at this time that the horns are still relatively small and easy to handle. There are several methods for dehorning, including using a saw cable, like the one we offer.

To perform dehorning with a horn saw cable, the main steps involve properly restraining the animal and then cutting the horn.

It is essential to follow the recommendations of the veterinarian or livestock professional to ensure that dehorning is performed safely and humanely, thus minimizing stress and pain for the animal. Moreover, using a high-quality saw cable like the one offered by Terwagne-élevage ensures effective intervention while limiting the risks of infections or bleeding.

Ultimately, responsible dehorning is an essential aspect of managing a cattle herd, aiming to preserve animal welfare, livestock personnel safety, and farm sustainability.
