Now the Government has introduced a BSE Testing System toreplace one of the controls that has banned cattle aged over 30 months from the food chain. This aims to ensure the continuinghigh level of protection of consumers in the UK.esearch shows that, by the most likely estimates, the risk from BSEtesting of older cattle, instead of banning them completely, willresult in less than one additional case of vCJD occurring in humansover the next 60 years. The worst-case scenario is that there couldbe 2.5 additional cases.
Diets are carefully balanced to meet all of the cowâs nutrient requirements for pregnancy, milk production and growth (if she has not yet reached her mature weight). A lactating cow will consume between 18 and 25 kg of dietary dry matter each day, depending on how much milk she is currently producing. Cows have access to feed and water at all times, except during milking (2 or 3 times per day). On farms with voluntary milking systems, the cows may receive a small amount of grain each time they enter the milking stall (4-8 times per day).
