The California Mastitis Test is an invaluable tool for dairy farmers to detect mastitis early and maintain herd health. Regular testing, combined with proper hygiene and management, can significantly reduce mastitis cases, improving milk quality and boosting farm profitability. By integrating the CMT method into your herd management routine, you ensure healthier cows and a more productive dairy operation.
Rainy seasons can significantly impact dairy nutrition, exposing your herd to various challenges that can reduce productivity and overall health. Understanding these effects and taking preventive measures can help you maintain your herd's well-being and productivity.
