Get Ready for Dry-Off
Less mastitis. Lower SCC. Less stress next spring. It starts with getting dry-off right.
A successful dry period doesn’t begin on the day you dry off your first cow. The decisions and preparations made in the weeks beforehand can make a real difference to udder health and help set your herd up for the next lactation.
That’s why CellCheck is counting down to dry-off.
Over five weeks, our experts will take you through the key actions to complete at each stage — from milk recording and identifying problem bacteria to teat scoring, preparing housing and getting cows ready for drying-off day.
Follow the countdown below and take it one week at a time.
The dry period is the launching pad for next year’s lactation. Lock disease out and lock success in.
