Mastitis in dairy herds is a worldwide problem, with
significant implications for milk yields and quality, economic losses, and animal health
and welfare - effective control makes a considerable difference to the farmer and the
animal. This new edition includes updated information throughout as well as new chapters
covering organic dairy herds, dry period infections, robotic milking, residue avoidance,
and best practice procedures. The authors, both fellows of the Royal College of Veterinary
Surgeons and recognised experts in the field, provide basic principles relevant to farmers,
vets and veterinary students in a clear and practical way, covering anatomy, epidemiology,
milking machines, disinfection, somatic cell counts, and diseases of the udders and teats
in order to provide a thorough understanding of the causes of mastitis and measures of
control and prevention. It is an indispensable resource for large animal vets, dairy
industry personnel, farm managers, dairy herdsmen, and researchers and students in animal
sciences and related disciplines.
