We're pleased to share that Farm Medix has joined the Organic Dairy and Pastoral Group (ODPG) of New Zealand.
ODPG connects dairy farmers who are passionate about organic and regenerative systems, backed by a strong farmer-to-farmer network and events throughout the year. It's a community we're proud to be part of.
As a member, we'll be contributing educational webinars and technical content on udder health and lameness, focused on best practice. Mastitis is one of the tougher challenges in organic systems, and there's plenty farmers can do to stay ahead of it.
How we help
Farm Medix helps dairy farmers manage herd health through precise, on-farm diagnostics. The approach suits organic systems well, because knowing exactly which pathogens are present lets you act with precision and rely on prevention. We work across the full mastitis picture, from pinpointing root causes to managing somatic cell counts, and every product is backed by expert support seven days a week. The result is consistent milk quality and clear data behind your decisions.
Mastitis management
We cover three levels: the whole farm, every cow in the herd, and the individual case in front of you.
Snapshot® reads the whole herd and plant from a single bulk-tank sample. It returns a full pathogen profile alongside hygiene indicators, showing where high SCC originates and where to focus, giving you a herd-wide picture with actionable recommendations from real data.
Herdscreen® tests the whole herd at high sensitivity to find the subclinical carriers, such as Staph. aureus, that other methods miss. Knowing exactly which cows carry infection lets you segregate and manage the source of new infections, which supports organic protocols.
Fresh Cow Dry Cow® (FCDC) is an on-farm culture kit that identifies the pathogen behind clinical cases and high-SCC cows, with a broad pathogen scope and clear results. You can make the right call quickly, whether that means segregating, drying off a quarter, or continuing to monitor.
Lameness
Stride-On™ is an MPI-approved copper leg band, already trusted by organic farmers internationally. Its CopperFlow™ technology gives steady, long-term support for common hoof infections such as foot rot, digital dermatitis, and white line disease, and improves hoof hygiene and integrity, with zero milk or meat withhold, ideal for organic systems.
We're looking forward to sharing practical, actionable ideas with the group. Here's to a strong season ahead.
