Variation in antibiotic treatment protocols used on large midwestern dairy farms
Antimicrobials are used on dairy farms to treat bacterial infections and are most used to manage mastitis. The aim was to describe variation in antibiotic treatment protocols on MI and OH dairy farms. We hypothesized that frequency, dosage and duration of antibiotic treatments would vary among farms.
