But many of the techniques Gamroth will demonstrate come as a result of what is learned at the milking schools conducted yearly by the Oregon State extension offices. The schools, which run over two days, show herd owners and employees the proper proce dures before milking. The schools also explain what the somatic cell count is, how mastitis originates, and how to properly treat and man age related herd health problems. “The schools explain more the ‘why’ of things rather than the ‘how,’” said Gamroth.
