Introduction
It is desirable to have one cow calf from each cow in stock farming. The researches that have been done show; milking 10 months and dry – off 2 months is the best way to get highest benefit from cows.
Dry – off Methods:
- It’s advised to dry – off the cows immediately that their milks decreased. However it seems hard but, it is specified by experts that, it’s the best way to protect cows from mastitis.
- For dry – off the cows with high milk yield, reducing the concentrated feed and water from 2 weeks – 3 weeks earlier, reducing the number of milking and finally stopping the milking is a kind of way. Left over milk in the udder does not harm the animal. All the milk should be milked from udder and never leave milk during milking process.
After dry – off udder swells, internal pressure increases, reddens and cause some pain to cow but udder should not milk anymore, if udder get milked; mammary glands could be stimulated for producing milk and this will increase risk of mastitis. In the following 8 days – 10 days, production of milk will be stopped, swelling will go down and cow will be dry – off.
Why we should use Masdisin Dry – Off (drying off solution)?
In the drying off period, production of milk continues for a while after last milking. Produced milk swells the udder, increases internal pressure and increased internal pressure forces the teat hole from the inside out. This pressure is an important factor of open teat canal. Also delay the formation of keratin plug of the dried – off cow that, protects the udder, should be created in the teat canal. The teat canal has been remained open, leaves the udder unprotected to entrance of microbes. After dry – off process in 7 days – 8 days in the teat canal there will be created a keratin structure and will protect the udder from outside impacts.
Similar situations likely for the cows are with loose teats just before birth. The situation of the milk to start early oscillate is a serious problem and leave the udder unprotected. Udder needs protection till the birth and should be sealed by Masdisin Dry – Off. Udder could need protection in any stage of dry – off period. It should be known that treatment of mastitis is the best during dry – off period while there is no milk production. Giving a tube of dry period antibiotic into udder and seal it with Masdisin Dry – Off and purify from outside effects could be a very good treatment option.
