During her talk, Dr. de Olives explained how subclinical mastitis affects the quality of milk, and as a consequence, the yield and quality of products made with it.
For this reason, she emphasized the importance of controlling subclinical mastitis on farms in order to guarantee the quality of goat milk production.
With its participation in the National Caprine Forum, HIPRA strengthens its commitment to the training of specialists in the sector and promotes the implementation of its programmes for the prevention of subclinical mastitis, which include vaccination with VIMCO® (Inactivated vaccine against caprine and ovine mastitis) and AGALAXIPRA® (Inactivated vaccine against contagious agalactia) amongst other solutions.
