World Dairy Expo: Boehringer Ingelheim Talks Dry-Off and Mastitis Management

Jen Roberts of Boehringer Ingelheim explains why dairy producers shouldn't put dry-off on autopilot, covering pre-dry-off vaccines, intramammary antibiotics, teat sealants, and acidogenic boluses that improve cow comfort. In this interview, she also discusses the value of culturing clinical mastitis cases, the most common parlor-prep mistakes, and why regular employee refresher training prevents protocol drift.
