New research out of Spain has developed a mastitis vaccine for staph aureus for small ruminants. Discuss the elements of a successful mastitis management program, learn about the research behind the vaccine, hear from goat and sheep producers who have been putting this revolutionary tool to work in their herds, and learn of their herdside experience over the past two years. Radically reduce losses in production as well as culling due to staph aureus, always a heartbreaking decision.

Speakers:

• Dr. Dan Shock, HIPRA Animal HealthBusiness Unit Manager - Ruminants
• Mariana Marques de Almeida, B.S. in Agricultural Science and M.S. in Animal Production from the University of Lisbon, Portugal. She has dedicated her life to the Sheep and Goat milk industry, from milk production to quality assurance and cheese making.   
• Charuth van Beuzekom, Shadow Brook Farm and Dutch Girl Creameryowner/herd manager/cheesemaker
