Milk Recording

There are many flexible milk recording options to suit you and your herd, from using one of our fully trained milk recorders or doing DIY self-sampling.

Essential Sampling is a straightforward testing service for milk constituents, without the requirement to record any animal events, ID or ancestry information.

A milk recording service specifically designed for herds that 'seasonally calve'. The 4 recordings per year can be timed to suit the farm system, usually when most animals have just calved, 60 days post-calving, 10 weeks pre-drying off or just before drying off.

This gives maximum benefit from the recording and the milk sample, including peak and accumulative yield and cell counts, along with weights and percentages of butterfat and protein.

A highly reliable test to detect Pregnancy Associated Glycoproteins (PAGs) to accurately determine whether or not the cow is pregnant.

A service that provides an insight into groups of cows suffering from a lack of energy before any detrimental effects set in. This allows remedial actions to be taken to help minimise production losses, disease and poor fertility.

If you have a Lely or Fullwood robotic milking system, we can provide a complete door-to-door service to help you test for pregnancy, SCC, or Johne’s disease. Using Ori Collector Shuttles, our team will arrive at your farm, set up the shuttles and check they’re operating correctly. Then they’ll complete the process, cleaning down before they leave. All you need to do is tell us when to arrive – we’ll do the rest.
