The AMPI Herd Profit Improvement (HPI) program is designed
to help members improve and maintain milk quality and
production. Qualified HPI specialists provide an unbiased
evaluation of milking equipment and practices that will
enable you to make decision that increase your herd
profitability.
"If we have ever felt there was something wrong with our
milking system, the HPI representative has found the
problem. The system checks and bulk tank cultures are two of
the tools we use to maintain our 63,000 somatic cell count
and 24,000-pound rolling herd average."

"When we were building our new dairy, the HPI representative
provided an unbiased opinion about the milking system and
parlor design. He wasn't trying to sell us anything. He
simply wanted to help us produce the best possible milk. He
continues to help us reach that objective through such
services as milking equipment checks and milker training.."

"Through the HPI bulk tank culture program I discovered
mycoplasma in my herd. Following that discovery we
individually cultured all of the cows in the herd to
identify the carriers. Today, I have a mycoplasma-free herd.
HPI is a good program. It enables dairy producers to catch
herd problems in their early stages."
