The effect of a national mastitis control program on the attitudes, knowledge, and behavior of farmers in the NetherlandsJ Jansen
Communication Science, Wageningen University, Wageningen, The Netherlands
J Dairy Sci 93:5737-47. 2010..The results showed that a national mastitis control program affected the attitudes, knowledge, and behavior of farmers regarding mastitis and could contribute to udder health improvement in the long term...
The effect of becoming BVDV-free on fertility and udder health in Dutch dairy herdsI M G A Berends
Quantitative Veterinary Epidemiology Group, Wageningen Institute of Animal Sciences, Wageningen University, Wageningen, The Netherlands
Prev Vet Med 84:48-60. 2008..Interestingly, both significant variables, being abortions and mastitis incidence, are parameters that are more difficult to influence by the farmer than the other parameters (e.g. calving interval)...

Department of Population Medicine and Diagnostic Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA
Prev Vet Med 60:281-95. 2003..In future prevalence studies for MAP, sample size calculations should be based on a very low cow-level prevalence. Approximately 50 and 90% of the herds in the current study had an estimated cow-level TP below 4 and 10%, respectively...
