Abstract

Most opportunities for a veterinarian to initiate a mastitis control program on a dairy occur because a dairyman is having mastitis related problems. If a veterinarian develops a planned approach aimed at solving the initial problem along with a long term goal of an extended control program, he usually will find the owner receptive. Progressive dairymen today are seeking ideas for stabilizing management procedures directed toward maintaining healthy herds and high production.
