Milk Quality (4 points each) Determine the premium adjustment (if any) based on the following Somatic Cell Count criteria. Criteria Somatic Cell Adjustment Rate ($/cwt) Count per 1,000 cells (SCC) Base 0 - 350,000 +0.0025 350,001 - 450,000 -0.0015 450,001 - 750,000 -0.0025 750,000 - OVER -0.0035 4. What is the SCC premium adjustment? a) 0.021 b) 0.080 c) 0.018 d) 0.310 (350 226 [1,000]) x 0.0025 = +0.05 – Milk Quality The control plate was determined clear, so analyze the dairys standard plate count (SPC) using the diagram of incubated plates below, determine the number of bacteria/ml. (The lab procedure for the bacteria plates used below is from a 1/1000 ml dilution.) __25__ colonies __26__ colonies __25,500____ average colonies
