LOW STRESS, LOW SCC

A herd coming through the sale barn the other day had cows with SCCs of 10, 12, 14. Cows were calm and relaxed. How’s that happen? The owner treats ‘em fairly, talks quietly, milks ‘em thoroughly, moves ‘em gently, and treats ‘em with respect. This lowers SCC, and stress goes down all around! FREESTALL HERDS NEEDED

12,000 cows, 160,000 SCC, 7 years with Udder Comfort

“It’s a simple preventive routine.” — Jake Benson

D&J DAIRY, HEREFORD, TEXAS Doug and Jake Benson 12,000 crossbred cows (2x) 65 lbs/cow/day 4.5F 3.5P 160,000 average SCC Dairy Quality Center Sustainability Certification

“From the ice cream kids eat, to the milk they drink, we take pride in producing a quality product. Udder Comfort™ is a good tool for quality management: Easy to use, no milk withdrawal, and the best for edema reduction. It’s a simple preventive routine. Our employees like how Udder Comfort makes fresh cows easier to milk,” says Jake Benson. He and his father Doug are partners in D&J Dairy, Hereford, Texas. For 7 years they’ve been using Udder Comfort to start every lactation, spraying all fresh udders for the first 6 to 8 milkings. The 12,000 cows in 3 units together make 4.5F 3.5P 160,000 SCC milk to earn quality premiums and certifications.

Friday, February 8, 2019 11 AM • Lancaster, PA

“We like Udder Comfort. It works. Fresh cows milk better, faster, with higher quality milk ready to go in the tank sooner. And we see fewer back in the hospital,” adds Gustavo, managing the transition unit’s parlor and fresh cows where 1000 calve monthly and begin their lactations with Udder Comfort. Quality Udders Make Quality Milk

Keep the milk in the system 1.888.773.7153 1.613.652.9086 uddercomfort.com

GTPI-TYPE SALE 11th edition 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.

Sale held at the Landis-MRK Barn, 3888 Oregon Pike, Leola, PA 100 LOTS SELL including genomics, show calves, embryos, IVF sessions and a select group of 40 milking and springers all with super pedigrees.

A 200-cow herd with 200 SCC loses 160,000 lbs. of milk per year. “Many think no younger people are entering dairy farming anymore. Arlyn Martin and many other quality younger dairymen prove that thought is “fake news.” Taking over the farm in his early 20s after his dad’s untimely passing from cancer, and doing an admirable job, has earned him praises from his mom and respect from many farmers. Arlyn says, “Our SCC dropped from about 300 to usually now 90-130 on Immu-Pro. Also, while things aren’t perfect and we need a better milk price, Immu-Pro has helped stop flareups and improved pregnancy rate and calf health. We really like Immu-Pro, just try it.” Congratulations on your marriage and we predict a great future for you both. Young people join the dairy farm revolution. Start out with your parents or others. Possibly form an LLC. Got a herd problem? Call us for a free consultation. Est. Never stop improving 1973
