Recognising NSW's top dairy farmers at Milk Quality Awards

Congratulations to all the Dairy NSW Gold and Silver award winners at the 2022 Australian Milk Quality Awards.

What a great achievement in a year that has presented so many environmental challenges to mastitis control! 

Now in its 20th year, the Milk Quality Awards are presented to farm businesses with the lowest bulk milk cell count (BMCC) data provided by processors for the financial year. Achieving a low BMCC means maintaining attention to key on-farm practices that reduce the number of mastitis issues arising across the herd, including a disciplined approaches to teat health, teat hygiene, post milking teat disinfection and drying off.
