| Summary: | Subclinical mastitis is an inflammation of the udder that often attacks livestock, especially milkproducing livestock. The impact of the subclinical mastitis losses is quite large, including a drastic decrease in the quantity and quality of milk, but no pathological changes were found in cows. The Karya Bhakti Village Unit Cooperative (VUC) is a center for milk production in the Kediri Regency which accommodates dairy cows' milk products from people's farms in the Kediri Regency. The low awareness of farmers in the management of livestock health care and hygiene results in low productivity and quality of milk and the high incidence of subclinical mastitis. This encourages counseling about subclinical mastitis. The socialization method used for counseling were carried out by presenting material about subclinical mastitis with lecture techniques (power point slides), videos about the method of early detection of subclinical mastitis using California Mastitis Test (CMT), conducting demonstrations of testing milk samples using the CMT method and discussion about the material that has been delivered as an indicator of the success of counseling. This series of counseling activities is an effort to reduce the incidence of subclinical
mastitis through increasing public knowledge and understanding. This activity also has a positive impact by reducing infectious diseases, especially subclinical mastitis in livestock so that the health of livestock and products from livestock will also be guaranteed both in terms of quality and quantity.
