Incentives and Free Testing
Herd testing

All licensed dairy herds in Atlantic Canada are eligible for FREE environmental cultures (EC) of the dairy cow facility. See program page for details. Samples will be collected by project personnel. A form to request testing is available by following the link. The value of the FREE EC is $240 per farm plus collection costs.

Risk Assessment

All herds conducting environmental culture are eligible for program funded risk assessment and management plan development by a program certified veterinarian. These assessments are expected to take approximately one hour. See program page for details. The program funds veterinary fees for this activity.

Cow Testing

Herds that are environmental culture positive are eligible for co-funded individual cow testing. Several options are available for testing. Test results are delivered through program certified veterinarians. All lactating cows must be tested to receive program co-funding. The AJDI will fund $6 per cow tested, regardless of the test option use
