Abstract

Most mastitis problems are a repeat of similar mastitis problems which continue to happen over and over. As the problems are repeats, so are the solutions in many instances. Solutions to mastitis problem usually involved short term and long corrections or changes. With this pattern of recurrence in mind, there is a base of information which should be gathered whenever it is necessary to attempt to solve a mastitis problem. This presentation will attempt to focus on the initial evaluation and immediate short term corrections made on the initial visit to the farm.
