Delvotest 10 Point Plan for prevention
A plan to suit every farm
The Delvotest 10 Point Plan provides
a coherent set of measures for the prevention of the presence of antibiotic
residues in milk.
By helping to reduce the risk of delivering contaminated milk, the Delvotest
plan enables farmers to avoid penalties associated with contaminated
deliveries such as milk refusal, monthly delivery penalty or invoicing of the
full tanker load if found positive. The plan is explained below. For further
details, you can download the Delvotest 10 Point Plan, designed and written by
DSM.
