What is mastitis, and why is its reduction important?
What will be an ideal response?
ANS:
Mastitis is an infection of the milk-secreting glands in milk-producing animals. The resulting loss of milk production adds millions of dollars yearly to the cost of milk in the United States. Recent research efforts resulted in the development of abraded plastic loops for insertion into cow udders. The procedure resulted in a reduction in clinical mastitis of 75 percent. The reduction in infections resulted in increased milk production, averaging nearly 4 lbs. of milk per cow per day.
