State dairy tests and association rounds outlined
The tester will visit all association members including CNAs to test butterfat and examine milk from the separator to check for cream loss. He will aid in locating purebred sites and planning balanced rations. Twelve cow testing associations operate in the state with 288 herds and 4737 cows.
