High somatic cell count is linked to significant milk yield losses in Holstein cows, underlining the impact of udder health.
The study found a strong correlation (r=0.964) between somatic cell count and risky lobe rates, indicating severe health impacts.
Using stratified random sampling from three provinces, data were analyzed to reveal clear statistical relationships between traits.
Improving milking and storage practices in dairy enterprises is essential to manage somatic cell count effectively.
