This eOrganic webinar took place on January 18, 2023.
This webinar will provide a description of microorganisms leading to intramammary infections in first-lactation organic dairy cows, their risk factors and their relationship with udder health on the following lactation. The findings of a NIFA OREI funded research project provide important information that could be used to develop tailored mastitis control plans for first-lactation organic dairy cows.
Presenters:
Felipe Pena Mosca, Noelle Noyes, Luciano Caixeta, University of Minnesota Vinicius Machado, Texas Tech University
The Open-Community Resource for Organic Animal Microbiome Education and Research Project (or open-ROAMER) is a USDA OREI funded research project aimed at launching microbiome research within the organic livestock community. Outcomes from the research will produce new, evidence-based tools to combat livestock diseases and production challenges affecting dairy health.
