Herd Profit Improvement
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."
