Using On Farm Culture to Improve Mastitis Treatment
Episode #1: Treatment Decisions for Clinical Mastitis
Part Two: Using Cultures to Make Selective Treatment Decisions

UW Milk Quality releases this new video series about on farm culturing with a two-part episode on making the decision to start a culturing program. In part two, we learn the basics of selective treatment for mastitis. We want to base our treatment decision for mastitis on having a diagnosis of what type of bacteria is responsible for that infection. The use of on farm culturing is just one part of implementing selective treatment protocols.
