  • Hokkaido, as center of Japanese dairying, 3.48 million tons of raw milk which was about 40% of total production in Japan were produced from 11,400 farms in 1996. The average herd size and the annual volume of milking per head in Hokkaido were 78 head, 7,200kg, and the quality of raw milk also is much better than that of other area in Japan. Raw milk having less than 100,000/ml in viable count and less than 300,000/ml of somatic cell count were 99.6%, 93% respectively. In spite of producing large amount of high quality milk, only 26% of total amount was processed as market milk and 76% was used for making dairy products like butter, cheese and milk powder. Therefore, because of big difference in price between the raw milk for market milk and for dairy products. the income of dairy farms are much less comparing to other parts of Japan, where most of the raw milk are consumed as market milk.

  • Background: Clinoptilolite is a natural zeolite with high adsorption capacity for polar mycotoxins such as aflatoxins. The efficacy of clinoptilolite in ameliorating the toxic effects of aflatoxicosis has been proven in monogastric animals, but there is no such evidence for ruminants. The aim of this study was to evaluate, under field conditions, whether the dietary administration of clinoptilolite in dairy cows could reduce the concentration of aflatoxin M1 ($AFM_1$) in bulk-tank milk, in farms with higher than or close to $0.05{\mu}g/kg$ of milk (European maximum allowed residual level). An objective of the present study was also to investigate the effect of particle size of clinoptilolite on aflatoxin binding. Methods: Fifteen commercial Greek dairy herds with AFM1 concentrations in bulk tank milk ${\geq}0.05{\mu}g/kg$ were selected. Bulk tank milk AFM1 was determined prior to the onset and on day 7 of the experiment. Clinoptilolite was added in the total mixed rations of all farms at the rate of 200 g per animal per day, throughout this period. Two different particle sizes of clinoptilolite were used; less than 0.15 mm in 9 farms (LC group) and less than 0.8 mm in 6 farms (HC group). Results: Clinoptilolite administration significantly reduced $AFM_1$ concentrations in milk in all farms tested at an average rate of 56.2 % (SD: 15.11). The mean milk $AFM_1$ concentration recorded on Day 7 was significantly (P < 0.001) lower compared to that of Day 0 ($0.036{\pm}0.0061$ vs. $0.078{\pm}0.0074{\mu}g/kg$). In LC group farms the reduction of milk $AFM_1$ concentration was significantly higher than HC group farms ($0.046{\pm}0.0074$ vs. $0.036{\pm}0.0061{\mu}g/kg$, P = 0.002). As indicated by the Pearson correlation, there was a significant and strong linear correlation among the milk $AFM_1$ concentrations on Days 0 and 7 (R = 0.95, P < 0.001). Conclusions: Dietary administration of clinoptilolite, especially of smallest particle size, at the rate of 200 g per cow per day can effectively reduce milk $AFM_1$ concentration in dairy cattle and can be used as a preventive measure for the amelioration of the risks associated with the presence of aflatoxins in the milk of dairy cows.

  • A survey of piroplasma infections, and trials of therapy of dairy cattle imported from Canada were conducted. The studies were carried out by hematological and clinical examinations, from May to September, 1970. The result obtained were summarized as follows: 1. A considerable damages due to Babesia and Theileria infections of dairy cattle were observed in several dairy farms where Pamaquine and Quinuroneum sulphate treatment was applied. 2. The infection was more commonly found in farms where Korean native cattle was raised previously. 3. The dairy cattle raised on pasture which is lightly infected with ticks were mostly infected with Theileria. The infected cattle were easily recovered after treatment with Pamaquine. 4. Leukocytosis and the left shift of neutrophils were observed in the cattle showing mixed infection with Babesia and Theileria.

  • This study evaluated the impact of an AI heifer calf rearing scheme on dairy stock development, in a coconut grazing and a peri-urban smallholder dairy production system in the Western Province of Sri Lanka. The heifer rearing scheme included free advice on calf rearing, drugs, acaricides, minerals and subsidised concentrates for 30 months. The farmers in the coconut growing area integrate dairying with their plantation, they sell their milk to the main processors. The peri-urban farmers are intensive milk producers, who sell their milk at informal markets. To estimate the effect of the heifer rearing scheme on dairy replacement stock development, scheme farmers were compared with farmers who did not participate in the scheme. Calf mortality was twice as high in non-scheme farms (23-28%) as in scheme farms (12-14%). The scheme had a positive effect on weight development and scheme heifers calved 4.5 months earlier than non-scheme heifers. The calf rearing package is cost effective in both farming systems, however, the required cash inputs are a major constraint. The costs per in-calf heifer under the scheme are much lower than the production of such animals by either multiplication in state farms or importing them. The coconut grazing system showed the highest potential for producing surplus dairy stock.

  • New Zealand, Palmerston North 지역의 낙농가 80여 개 낙농가에 1998년 2월부터 1998년 7월까지 우편설문지에 의해 조사되었다. 주어진 질문항목은 1). General characteristics (10개 질의), 2). Milk yield and feed supplementary (7개질의), 3). Reproductive efficiencies (14개 질의), 4). Reproductive disorders (12개 질의) 4개 항목을 포함하는 합계 43개의 질문을 내포하고 있었다. 낙농가의 응답자 38농가 (47.5%)에서 회수된 질의문 4개 항목중 1). 2). 항목에 해당되는 낙농사업에 있어서 일반적인 낙농 사육현황, 보조사료 그리고 우유 생산 등을 집계 분석하여 장단점을 파악하고, 우리나라 낙농인 (특히 제주도)들에게 인식시켜 보다 낳은 경제적 이익을 주기 위한 목적으로 수행된 바 이 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 낙농사육경력은 38개 낙농가 중 기록된 농가가 21개 (45%)였는데, 이중 15년 미만경력이 3농가(7.9%), 15~19년 경력은 7농가 (18.4%), 20~25년의 경험 농가가 6개 농가 (15.8%)였고, 26년 이상 경력을 가진 농가수는 5농가 (13.2%)로 대체로 우리나라보다 경력기간의 길고 많은 경험을 갖고 있는 낙농부국이었다. 낙농가의 노동력 투입에 있어서 주인 자신이 직접 경영하고 있는 농가는 21농가 (55.3%)였으며, Sharemilker에 의존하여 운영하는 농가가 10농가 (26.3%), 그리고 가족노동력이 투입된 2농가 (3.5%), Manager 가 주로 주관하여 운영되는 3농가 (5.3%), 일하는 사람을 두고 있는 농가 18농가 (31.6%)였으며, Part time 인력을 쓰는 농가는 2농가 (3.5%)뿐이고 기타가 1농가 (1.8%)로 나타내고 있었다. 이러한 사항은 낙농농가 당 1.5 인에 해당됨으로 경제적 이익 향상을 위해서 임금투입이 아주 낮았다. 2. 사육기반인 방목지와 경작지를 분석하여 보면 사육규모별 (200, 300, 400두) 방목지는 각각 56, 90, 165.3ha로 평균 107.8ha이었고, 경작지도 각각 51, 78, 165ha로서 사육규모별 차이가 컸다(P<0.01). 이와 같은 결과는 낮은 비용으로 우유를 생산하고 우유제품 95%를 세계 각국으로 수출할 수 있는 기반이 되고 있음을 입증 할 수 있었다. 낙농가의 전반적인 기록여부사항은 응답농가 (38 농가) 중 10농가 (26.3%)가 computer, 벽기록장을 이용하는 농가수가 15농가(39.5%), 그리고 낙농수첩을 사용하고 있는 낙농가는 36농가(95%)로 가장 높았으며, 두 가지로 기록하고 있는 농가 수는 23농가(70%)로 높은 편이었다. 3. 한편, 환경면에 있어서 분뇨 처리 시설 분야는 큰 도시를 제외한, 공해를 인식하지 못할 정도로 깨끗하여 아직은 철저하지 않아서 공해처리는 문제화되지 않고 있었다. 그러므로, Pond system 이 26농가(68.4%)로 제일 많았으며, 다음에 매일 분을 제거하여 쌓아 놓아서 저장해 놓고 유기질 비료로서 이용하는 농가가 8농가(21.1%), 1 농가(2.6%)에서 Bunker system으로 저장되었고 기타의 방법으로 저장하는 것이 3농가(7.9%)로 대부분 유기질 비료가 부족하여 화학 비료를 많이 사용하고 있는 형편이며 한국의 30~40여년 전 환경 상태와 유사하였다. 4. 우유 착유 시설 조사에서는 Harringbone 시설이 33농가(86.9%)였고, 다음으로 Walkthrough 구조가 3농가(7.9%), Rotary system 과 기타 구조식이 각각 1개 농가(2.6%)로 세계 낙농 선진국으로 인정 할 수 있으나, 축사시설은 거의 없고 착유시설만 설치되어 있어서 기후환경의 이점을 최대로 살려 경제성 향상을 시도하고 있었다. 5. 착유일수와 두당, 년간 비유량에 관해서 착유일수는 평균 275일, 건유기간 약 87일로 New Zeal-and 의 평균 착유일수 228일 보다 약 47일정도 긴 결과를 보여주고 있다. 착유두수 당 우유 총생산량을 보면 년간 평균 3,990kg 이었고, 우유 건물량 (ms)은 약 319kg였다. 그리고 매일 두당 우유건물량 (ms)은 평균 1.2kg, 우유량은 15.5kg(건물 12.5%로 환산), 우유지방은 평균 4.83%로 외국의 수치 보다 상당히 높았고, 우유 단백질은 평균 3.57% 이었다. 6. 결론으로 Palmerstone North 지역의 낙농업은 뉴질랜드의 중심지로 목장운영의 경험과 경력 약 20년으로, 우리나라의 6~9년 보다 길고, 전체 호당 평균 사육두수는 약 355두로서, 우리나라 최근 호당 35두에 비하여 차이가 심했다. 목장에는 사육우사는 거의 없고 단지 충실한 착유실만 있을 뿐으로 대부분의 목장은 가축 노동력인 부부 두 사람 (1.5 인)에 의해서 착유가 실시되고 있으며, 특이한 것은 철저히 봄에만 분만 (93%) 을 유도하는 계절번식을 시도하여 착유기간은 240~280일로 겨올동안은 착유를 하지 않고, 당해년 그 무리의 비유량과 body score에 의해서 건유기가 결정되어 휴식기로 들어감으로서 우리나라와는 다방면(경영형태포함)에서 많은 차이점이 있었다. 그리고 젖소에는 전혀 농후사료를 급여하지 않고 완전히 방목을 위주로 사육되기 때문이며 착유량은 약 3,500kg로 우리나라의 절반이지만 집유시 우유량 보다 유지율에 따라서 환금됨으로 유지율이 4,5%로 상당히 높은 수준으로 개량하여 왔으며, 세계에서 가장 낮은 가격의 우유를 생산하는 낙농부국으로서 우리나라도 노동력 절감과 대규모 사육을 위한 실질적인 면은 물론 경영면에 더욱 치중하여야 할 것이다.

  • Recently, antimicrobial resistance of microorganisms has been a major concern of its relation to food safety and national health, therefore, customer's needs to organic animal food is still increasing. In this study, we reviewed the usage of antimicrobials in animal farms and antimicrobial resistance of microorganisms isolated from organic dairy farm environments. The isolates from dairy farms were Acinetobacter sp., A. lwoffi, A. johnsonii, A. towneri, Aerococcus viridans, Aeromonas media, A. veronii, Bacillus pseudofirmus, B. pumilus, B. licheniformis, Corynebacterium glutamicum, Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecium, Lysinibacillus fusiformis, Paenibacillus illinoisensis, Staphylococcus epidermidis, S. hominis, Streptococcus equinus, S. lutetiensis, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Indicator microorganisms isolated from organic dairy farms were tested for susceptibility to 20 types of antimicrobials. E. coli (ATCC 25922) isolated from dairy farm fence showed resistance to 8 types of antimicrobials, such as oxacillin, penicillin, vancomycin, etc., and E. faecium isolated from feces showed resistance to 9 types of antimicrobials, such as cephalothin, oxacillin, streptomycin, etc., respectively. However, these results showed less antimicrobial resistance compare with customary dairy farm.

  • A survey of physical inputs was conducted on the total population of dairy farms supplying milk to the Rewa cooperative dairy company in Fiji. The critical inputs associated with total farm milk production were determined using multiple regression, with analyses being conducted for each of the three identified supplier groups, bulk milk, canned milk and cream. Mean annual milk production per cow averaged 1460 (s.d. = 319), 889 (s.d. = 321) and 800 (s.d. = 451) litres for the bulk milk, canned milk and cream suppliers respectively. Stocking rate averaged 1.37 (s.d. = 1.18) cows per hectare over all farms. Inputs to pasture were universally low and Navua sedge (Cyperus aromaticus) was identified as a major weed. The average amount of supplement fed annually on a grain equivalent basis was 700 (s.d. = 984) kg per cow for bulk milk, 84 (s.d. = 198) kg per cow for canned milk and 146 (s.d. = 542) kg per cow for cream suppliers. The analysis of data from a small group of farms using nitrogen fertiliser indicated that their production levels were higher than the general population. This suggests that there is potential for the Fijian dairy industry to increase milk production through the use of higher inputs to cows and pastures. The regression models relating annual milk production from farms to the two key inputs of number of cows milked and the amount of supplement fed were all significant (p < 0.001). The coefficients of determination for these models ranged from 56.9 to 89.4 percent.

  • The artificial insemination (AI) is one of the best assisted reproductive technologies for increasing reproductive capacity and facilitating the genetic improvement in farm animals. AI has been used in Uganda for over 60 years, but a small population of the total herd has been used. This study was conducted to investigate the efficacy of AI with estrus synchronization technique and to propose ways of improving the productivity of dairy farms through AI services in Uganda. In total, 78 cows from 11 dairy farms were selected for timed-AI. Synchronization was performed according to the ovsynch programs followed by AI using frozen semen from Korean Holstein (0.5 ml straws). Pregnancy rate was varying among farms (0-50%) and the overall pregnancy rate was 28.2%. Cows in luteal phase at the time of treatment was 40.0% whereas that in follicular phase was 20.8%. After treatment, cows that showed normal estrus signal were 45.5% (25/55). Abnormal estrus was categorized into pre-estrus (9.1%), cystic ovaries (21.8%), anestrus (18.2%) and delayed ovulation (5.5%), respectively. These results imply that an assured protocol for timed-AI should be developed to improve the productivity of dairy farms through AI services in Uganda.

  • A study on the prevalence and causes of sub-clinical mastitis was conducted on ten smallholder and large-scale dairy farms in Morogoro urban and peri-urban areas. A total of 65 lactating cows were screened using the California Mastitis Test (CMT). Confirmatory tests used included; the direct microscopic somatic cell count (DMSCC), culture, bacteriological and biochemical tests. Structured questionnaires were used to collect information on management aspects. Results showed 62% and 4% cows as sub- clinical and clinical mastitis cases respectively. Levels of infection were higher on smallholder farms (75%) than on large-scale farms (25%). All tested cows had high cell counts (>500,000) per ml of milk. Incidences of mastitis were significantly (p<0.05) related to milking practices. The dominant bacterial isolates in the same order were Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus spp, and Escherichia coli. Other organisms isolated included Pseudomonas spp and Klebsiella spp. It was concluded that the high rates of sub-clinical mastitis in the research area were mainly due to poor management and unhygienic milking practices.
