Prevalence of mastitis in goats from Ladang Angkat UPM and its relationship with selected risk factors
This study was carried out to determine the prevalence of clinical and subclinical mastitis in goat farms of Ladang Angkat UPM, pathogens in milk, and to determine the relationship between selected risk factors and mastitis. A total of 158 milk samples from 80 goats of eight farms were collected ase...
