Milk Pregnancy Testing
Hico offers milk pregnancy testing to assist with your Herd Management. Pregnancy testing has evolved from traditional methods and we can now detect pregnancy associated Glycoproteins (PAGs) to determine pregnancy status in milk.
You have the ability to test anywhere from one cow right through to your whole herd. Samples can be taken from your routine herd test, or individual sampling vials provided to you by your local branch.
