“We really like what this product does for our herd.” — Tony Compton
COMPTON DAIRY, Tony, Pam and Ben Compton COLUMBIA, KENTUCKY 200 cows milking robotically, RHA 24,000M SCC 170,000, 2013 Kentucky Dairy Quality Award
“We have been using Udder Comfort™ for 6 years and really like what this product does for our herd. It helps with milk quality, and we have less need for antibiotics,” says Tony Compton of Compton Dairy, Columbia, Kentucky. Tony and his wife Pam and son Ben operate the 200-cow dairy that transitioned to robotic milking last year. The dairy received the Kentucky Dairy Quality Award in 2013. “We like producing a good quality product and to provide good cow comfort for our herd. Udder Comfort is part of that. We like how quickly it gets edema out of the udders. Anytime we can do that, it helps our milk quality.
“We use Udder Comfort on all fresh cows 2x/day for 3 to 4 days. We also use the information from the robot every day to find high conductivity and apply Udder Comfort 2x/day in the headlocks where needed. This normally brings the conductivity back down to average.” Quality Udders Make Quality Milk
Keep the milk in the system 1.888.773.7153 1.613.652.9086 uddercomfort.com Call to locate a distributor near you. For external application to the udder only after milking, as an essential component of udder management. Always wash and dry teats thoroughly before milking.
