Abstract
  • The primary goal of a Bulk Tank Milk Culture (BTMC) is to determine what types of bacteria are in milk. Bacteria originate from three sources: udder tissue infected with a contagious bacteria, cow's environment, including milking equipment, and bacteria flora that reside on the teat or udder skin. Use this chart to change your management towards reducing bacteria counts. You can reduce or control the source of bacteria, or modify the environment so it cannot survive. Your veterinarian, sanitarian, or Extension dairy agent can help you. The final result is higher quality milk in your bulk tank and higher producing cows free of udder infection.
