I can never understand why processing plants in the USA will accept milk with a level of 750,000 SCCs and have not reduced the level to that accepted in most of Europe or New Zealand. Dr Reneau so correctly writes this milk is bad for shelf life and cheese production.
Although I agree with all that Dr Reneau has written but I believe that prevention is better than cure.
I strongly recommend that all cows be checked once a month on DHI, and cows with SCCs above 200,000 be cultured. A healthy herd is a herd below 200,000 SCCs on DHI and not a herd with diverted quarters.

How good it must be that the technology used in Switzerland will also be transferred to other countries specially those that have more cows but doesn't have the right method for milk processes. Who knows these countries might also be able or expand the said technologies to other country as well once they can fully understand how it works.
