Two Causes of Mastitis Pointed Out
County Extension Director M C Wangsness warns that worn pulsators and faulty air hoses may cut milking efficiency and trigger mastitis in herds. Iowa State University engineer Vern Meyer cites a survey showing one fourth of dairy farmers had milk ing machines with worm pulsators and faulty air hoses. He offers quick checks: count pulsator clicks per minute and divide by two, or count squeezes in 15 seconds and multiply by four. Each pulsator should be checked separately and numbered for identification. A serviceman should inspect pulsators during checks.
