I am thinking that instead of treatment and control of Mastitis in dairy animals, to prevent or prolong the incidence. For that I need valuable advice and collaboration. If anyone have anything effective with regards prevention and control of mastitis please share with me.
(1) milk in a clean, stress-free environment; (2) check foremilk and udder for signs of clinical mastitis; (3) minimize use of water in the milking parlor; (4) wash teats with warm sanitizing solution, if necessary; (5) apply premilking teat disinfection; (6) dry teats thoroughly 30 to 45 seconds after premilking teat disinfectant application; (7) attach teat cups within one minute after cleaning; (8) provide stable vacuum at claw during peak milk flow; (9) avoid squawking or slipping of teat cup liners during milking; (10) adjust milking units as necessary, (11) shut off vacuum before removing machine; and (12) apply postmilking teat disinfectant shortly after milking machine removal.

Hello Shaikh...Kindly read the article by Michael Looper, Professor and Department Head Animal Science, in Reducing Somatic Cell Count in Dairy Cattle, 2 options they have discussed, in that the long-term solution: which should be the basis of a sound management program. For details see the attachment.
I think ,you can put prevention strategy especially managemental depend on your many epidemiological factors that available in your area
Ensure skin to skin contact at birth and unrestricted during hospital stay Ensure effective positioning and attachment Encourage frequent, baby led feeding Prevent nipple trauma through good position and attachment Keep the mother and the baby together 24/7 so the mother is able to respond to feeding cues – rooming in Avoid missing feeds and leaving long gaps between feeds Avoid unnecessary breast milk supplements (BMS) Avoid the use of teats and dummies Avoid and treat breast engorgement Teach gentle massage and hand expression of breastmilk as a self help measure Avoid pressure on the breast (tight bra or holding the breast firmly during feeding)
