Meet our Experts - Ben Barber

Ben Barber is part of our network of experts, read on to find out a little more about his work.

Ben qualified in 2014 from the Royal Veterinary College, London and joined the Farm Animal Production internship at Synergy Farm Health based in Dorset, UK. He has remained at Synergy ever since, though has taken the opportunity to see veterinary practice in the Netherlands and New Zealand as part of a sabbatical.

Ben is the main health advisor for one of the UK’s largest beef integration chains, focusing on their calf rearing enterprise which sources milk-fed calves from multiple dairies. He completed a Masters in Veterinary Epidemiology in 2021, and uses these skills to interpret large calf performance datasets and conduct studies on a beef calf-rearing trial farm that is under his care.
