Low milk protein and high somatic cell count costing a business 13,000 pound sterling a month
20 Apr 2012On a farm visit outside in County Down a dairy farmer with 350 cows informed me that low milk protein and high somatic cell count were costing his business 13,000 pound sterling a month. Poor silage quality, with poor transition management pre calving and post calving are the main cost factors.
