Last year, a fantastic 3,000 farmers took part in survey comissioned by Dairy Farmer and Intervet/Schering-Plough Animal Health
Cobactan® National Mastitis Survey
Metricure® National Fertility Survey
Rotavec™ Corona National Scour Survey
These three surveys were developed by vets in practices and aimed to delve into the problems and challenges that herds face every day, as well as recognising the improvements being made. Understanding cow performance, how farmers set and measure targets and what happens on a day-to-day is invaluable information for the farmer industry.
The 2010 Cobactan National Mastitis Survey which took place in June/July 2010 revealed some interesting findings. Farmers from all parts of the country entered and a whole range of herd sizes was represented. To view the results and the key findings click here.
