Milk Quality Monitoring _ We offer a range of tests carried out on bulk milk samples in addition to the standard payment testing samples, including Bactoscan, somatic cell count (SCC), butterfat (BF) and protein (P). These additional tests are carried out using ‘spare’ samples held in our fridges, so no extra sampling is required. Samples are collected via our transport network, delivered to one of our labs to be tested and results are subsequently reported generally within 24 hours. What are the benefits? • Regular results without the hassle of sampling • Avoiding milk cheque penalties by reacting faster to rising SCC and bactoscan • Changes to cattle nutrition can be made more quickly, based on daily BF and P results • Accessing results is quick and easy - by text, email or via Herd Companion 32 NML Customer Services: 01902 749920 / milk@nmrp.com
Mastitis ID _ Reducing the number of mastitis cases will help increase profit margins, as well as improve herd health and animal welfare. A PCR / DNA profiling test will determine the presence and quantity of the most common contagious and environmental pathogens that cause mastitis. Identifying which specific pathogen is causing mastitis will determine which treatment will be effective on an individual cow or quarter, as well as determining what preventative measures to put in place to stop further cases occurring. What are the benefits? • Reduces costs from dumping milk • Reduces time in parlour • Prevents reduction in milk yield in the rest of the current lactation, as well as subsequent lactations • Improves herd health and animal welfare We recommend sterile sampling to reduce the risk of cross contamination. You can test an individual animal or even an individual quarter; we can also use your bulk milk samples to gain a general picture of mastitis-causing pathogens within the herd. Results can be accessed via Herd Companion, or emailed to you. We can also send a copy to your vet, so they have a record and can advise on the best course of action. When receiving your results, we will provide guidance notes to help you interpret results. For any questions on this, please contact us on the number below.
