  • The system paid for itself five times over in the first season from the reduced milk withholding and by not buying as many drugs

    Andrew Dairy Farmer | New Zealand

  • We have halved the number if mastitis cases treated with antibiotics

    Toby Herd Manager | UK

  • The Mastatest Lapbox is easy to use and starting a Mastatest is straight forward. I like this system because I don’t have to do any culture plate interpretation.

    Luis Assistant Manager Animal Health Team | USA

  • In the two years of running Mastatest, we have seen a drop in the use of antibiotics. The results we get from Mastatest provide us with targeted information on bacteria and antibiotics. And by using the right antibiotics, we get really good cure rates.

    Arjan Farm owner and Sharemilker | New Zealand

  • No more guesswork. Using Mastatest we know if a cow needs treatment and what drug to use. We’ve reduced our antibiotic usage by 25%.

    Lisa Farmer | New Zealand

  • Ease of use and speed of turn-around time within the clinic means that sampling becomes a more attractive option for clients and easier for veterinary staff.

    Dr Andrew Bates Senior Dairy Veterinarian and Dairy Science Director | New Zealand

  • It gives every person in our milking teams the best opportunity to identify mastitis. If they’re relying on visual cow clues, they may not see it, either because it’s not obvious or because people’s skills vary.

    Angela Veterinarian | New Zealand

  • We were going up to six treatments with the previous treatment regime, then needing to change drug with a high number of quarters dried off and cows in the pennos for a month. With Mastatest, the cows are in the pens for a much shorter period, which has been so good.

    Claire Farmer | New Zealand

  • We’ve got to a stage where we are managing cell count well, an average of 86,000. The Mastatest system seemed to be the most simplistic, easy culture system to use.

    Dave Farm owner | New Zealand

  • It is good to actually see the types of mastitis coming through, build some understanding on where it’s coming from, and actually feel more confident about the dollars we are inserting into those cows.
