Abstract

The supervised internship, held from January 3 to February 19, 2024, at Fazenda Agropecuária Sete Copas, located on Rodovia Cocos-Mambaí, Km 30, in the municipality of Jaborandi, Bahia, provided an enriching practical experience under the supervision of zootechnician Marcos Locatelli and with the assistance of veterinarian Pedro Vitor de Assis Grazziotti. During the internship, several preventive health measures were carried out, including mastitis testing and treatment of infiltration in the animals' hooves. In addition, an immunoglobulin test was carried out to detect parasitic sadness in calves, followed by monitoring of treatments. Herd vaccination activities were also developed, focused on disease prevention, ensuring animal health and promoting good productivity on the property. Animal monitoring was facilitated by the use of the Farmtellmilk application, which allows detailed monitoring of each animal, recording information such as number of births, heat dates and individual history. The property currently has an average of 1,200 animals, covering all categories. This experience was fundamental for personal and professional development, allowing the practical application of the knowledge acquired throughout academic training, in addition to providing the learning of new techniques and approaches in the area of ​​Animal Husbandry. This report describes the experience during the internship, highlighting the importance of this opportunity for training in the area.
