Introduction
Our Herd Health programme is all about helping herdowners achieve the best possible performance from their herds through maximising health and management.
The Munster Bovine Herd Health programme has been running since 2013 with approximately 2500 herd owners set to avail of the service in 2020.
The greatest testament to the Herd Health programme is that once farmers join, they continue to use the service year on year.
How is testing completed?
All you have to do is sign up and we organise everything else. Milk samples are collected from your bulk tank at 4 strategic times during the year. A variety of tests are carried out depending on the month of collection.
After each round of testing, the results are posted to each herd owner, loaded into FarmOps and emailed to your own vet if requested.
