Bovine mastitis in selected dairy farms in Morogoro district, Tanzania.
The dairy cattle herds in three farms of the Morogoro district, Tanzania, were surveyed for the presence of clinical mastitis and subclinical mastitis. Modern tests were used for assessment. Bacterial isolations were supplemented by bacterial and cell counts. The findings support the demands for milk pasteurization and the establishment of udder health services.
