Award-winners offer their backing to CID LINES products

-

THE following is a testimonia­l from PJ and Catherine Wall, the ‘Lowest SCC Award Winner in Ireland’.

“AS a dairy farmer, the most important part of my job is to take care of my herd to the best of my ability at all times. In the milking parlour, it is very important that I have a simple and reliable system in place so I can consistent­ly produce good quality milk.

“I use the CID LINES range of products...both for cleaning my milk tank and also for my teat care and disinfecti­on protocols.

“I use DM Clen Super, Pho Cid and Kenocid 2100 for my machine and tank, the Kenocidin range for teat care, and Kenocox disinfecta­nt for my calf housing.

“Having used these products for the last four years, I have found them to be excellent, and I am very impressed, especially with their teat dips, and I would would recommend them very highly.

“I am delighted with my SCC and teat conditions and my TBC is running at optimal levels.

“If I were to give tips on improving TBC and SCC, I would say to do the basic things right, ensure you have good and proven protocols in place, use high-quality products.

“Milk recording is a very important tool to find problem cows on time and be able to treat them accordingl­y.

“Regular milking machine maintenanc­e and service is needed.

“Finally, do your best, and don’t be afraid to ask people for help and advice.”
