Single-use towels for each cow prevent cross-contamination between animals during the milking process.

Removing chronically infected cows reduces the spread of infection to healthy animals in the herd.

Providing a clean and low-stress environment for cows reduces exposure to mastitis-causing pathogens.

Treating cows with antibiotics during the dry period eradicates existing infections and prevents new ones from occurring at a vulnerable time.

Routine examinations by a veterinarian can detect early signs of mastitis, allowing for prompt treatment.

Regular inspection and maintenance of milking equipment ensure proper function and prevent teat damage or stress.

Breeding for traits such as improved udder conformation and mastitis resistance can lead to a genetically healthier herd less prone to infections.
