With conception rates regularly below 50%, it is important to recognise non-pregnant cows as early as possible and one method is to test through regular milk samples.
Milk pregnancy testing helps dairy farms shorten the calving interval and reduce the number of days that cows are open.
These costs include the value of the milk the cow would have produced, the value of her calf, and other relevant factors. Considering a 100-cow dairy farm, this effect can have a tremendous impact and can reduce profitability by as much as £9,000. The milk pregnancy test is proven to be as accurate as ultrasound and can be used as early as 28 days after insemination. Already more than 27 million tests performed worldwide based on the ELISA technology.
