Economic consequences of different methods for detection and control strategies against subclinical mastitis

The aim of the first study was to estimate the economic results in a dairy herd related to different mastitis control strategies, which covered prevention and treatment of clinical and subclinical mastitis caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus agalactiae and Eschericia coli, by use of the Monte Carlo simulation technique.

Predictive Biology: What does the future hold for mastitis control?

Ultimately, disease control programs have one goal: to predict disease and take measures in order to prevent disease from occurring. According to Dr. Martin Green, Professor of Cattle Health & Epidemiology at the University of Nottingham, more can be done to prevent mastitis. Green spoke on the subject at theRead more

The data suggests that there is not necessarily a relationship between the number of bacteria in bedding and in bulk milk.
Management

Does RMS bedding deteriorate milk quality or udder health?

Risks, benefits and optimal management of recycled manure solids for use as bedding. The use of recycled manure solids (RMS) as bedding in dairy operations offers significant advantages in terms of comfort and overall costs. Animal by-products (ABPs), however, have the potential to spread animal disease. If not properly disposedRead more
