Take a detailed look at where cows can pick up infections that can cause clinical mastitis.

As somatic cell counts improve, why is clinical mastitis the new battleground on farms.

Also with ever increasing pressure on antibiotic usage this course looks at by applying good management practices how to significantly reduce antibiotic usage.

Develop a systematic approach for investigating clinical mastitis based on three areas.

Step by step way of looking for risk areas, take a view of 24 hours in the life of the cow.

1. The environment

2. The teat

3. The immunity of the cow/herd

This is a very practical course with very practical advice.
