Milking and Mastitis Management - South Coast

Mastitis and milk quality affect the bottom line of all dairy farms. Dairy Australia estimates that every case of clinical mastitis costs at least $270 in treatment costs and lost milk.

Milking and Mastitis Management is a two-day workshop designed by Dairy Australia, delivered by trained experts in mastitis and milk quality.

The course equips participants with firsthand techniques for effectively preventing, treating, and managing mastitis in dairy herds.

The program has incorporated key essential practical skills which will be demonstrated and practiced on farm during day 2.

Milking and Mastitis Management helps dairy farmers achieve best practice in milk harvesting.

Learn about:

• How and why mastitis infections occur
• Practical methods to detect, treat and prevent mastitis

MMM is ideal for relatively new milking staff seeking foundational knowledge and serves as a valuable refresher for experienced staff, and managers who train others.

Day 1 will be at the Bomaderry Bowling Club.

Day 2 will be held on a farm close by with the details available closer to the day for those registering.
