I knew a farmer who never used expensive and dangerous penicillin when his cows got mastitis ,as he had orchards near him he gave his cows CV daily as a prevention and it worked well. I used to use Cv allot but now I am going to put some on my tongue and curl it then draw in a deep breath to nebulise it.
EC: CV = Cider Vinegar

Just how do you get your cows to drink CV (cider vinegar)????? Or do you treat their udders with it ??I'd be interested in how you do this.

We come fron a large 900 cow dairy farm and we add the Apple cider vinegar into our dosatron which is then put into the troughs on the farm. We use about 10mls per cow.

We have also found that we have less retainted membranes with calving cows since this has been introduced into our farming proceedures, before calving. You will notice their coats tend to be glossier.
