Did you know that you could be earning at least 1c/l more by improving mastitis control in your herd? Find out how at a CellCheck farmer workshop. The objective of these workshops is to help farmers to understand the causes of mastitis and highlight how making simple changes in their everyday milking routines can improve and maintain lower SCC levels in their herd.
Focusing on practical mastitis control steps, the workshops are delivered by CellCheck trained service provider teams consisting of a farm adviser, a vet, a milking machine technician and a co-op milk quality adviser.
Each workshop is 2.5 hours in duration; it is farm-based with a mixture of interactive, classroom-style learning, practical work stations and group discussion. Group sizes are small to allow plenty of discussion and questions, and it costs €30 per farmer to attend.
