title: [Co-operation between veterinarian and farm adviser, still an undeveloped field? (AUTHOR'S TRANSL)].
abstract: In actual practice it does not often happen that the veterinarian gets into touch with the farm adviser, or vice versa, to exchange views on a particular farm or on problems in their fields of activity. As a rule, this is due to lack of time and/or insufficient acquaintance with each other. There are two fields in which effective co-operation between the two is possible, viz. the management of problem herds and in herd health practice. Interest is centering increasingly in the latter and it is precisely this field in which the farm adviser may also play an important role. It is claimed that working together at the solution of a (veterinary-agricultural) problem on a particular farm will contribute to a closer acquaintance on both sides. The initiative may be taken either by the veterinarian or by the farm adviser. This will possibly result in a happy collaboration in the future, not only in dealing with problem herds but also in hered health practice on those farms on which this is required (or desired).
