Test your milk quality - quickly and cheaply - 07th May 2008

Test your milk quality - quickly and cheaply Mastitis is the single most costly disease faced by dairy producers today. It takes money out of your pocket every day in many ways - decreased milk yield, lost premiums or increased penalties on milk price. If detected early these losses can be reduced. With the growing pressure to lower bulk tank counts, the need for affordable, convenient early detection is even more critical but finding a viable option has always been problematic. The Porta SCC Milk Test was designed for this very purpose. Read more about it in our Milking products section on this website, or contact your local dealer for more information.
