The SDCA plays an integral part in AgriScot which annually displays a multi dairy breed show attracting the highest standard of dairy stock in the UK with prize money of over £25,000.
We work closely with the Scottish Government and support their efforts to eliminate diseases such as FMD, BVD, Johnes and Bluetongue all of which can have a debilitating effect on animal welfare and dairy farm profits.
Milk recording and the resultant benefits of nutrition, management feed- back, improved animal welfare are heavily promoted to improve farm incomes. Over 70% of all dairy cows in Scotland are now milk recorded.
The SDCA is a voluntary organisation with charity status and represents the interests of every dairy farmer in Scotland maintaining an up to date data base of individual farms and cows.
