NMC webinar features parlor throughput and quality milk production

Global organization for mastitis control and milk quality offers webinar in Spanish

 

Join National Mastitis Council (NMC) for its next webinar – presented in Spanish – on Sept. 16, starting at 2 p.m. Central time (U.S./Canada). Rodrigo Pedraza, NMC board member and technical services veterinarian for Zoetis, will address “Efficient Parlor Throughput with Milk Quality in Mind” (“Ordeno eficiente con Calidad de Leche en mente”). The one-hour webinar is free.

During this NMC webinar, learn about several aspects of parlor management that may affect milk quality. Simple observations may help milking parlor managers and milking technicians make corrections that will benefit udder health, milk quality and milk production.

Pedraza graduated in 1988 from the Universidad de La Salle. He spent 13 years in private veterinary practice in Colombia. In addition, Pedraza completed an internship and residency in food animal production management at Virginia Tech University, and worked as a veterinarian and lab manager at Udder Health Systems. He joined Pfizer (now known as Zoetis) in 2005 as a technical services veterinarian.
