County Extension Agent
Ages of vaccination for bru
cellosis for both beef and dairy
eaives in Oregon is now three
to eight months of age. This
new age for vaccinations has I
"- i yievcnr vatunaiuu
animals showing up as reactors
or suspects when tested for bru
cellosis because they still carry
the vaccination titre. The
change is important because of
the new federal testing age of
months tor beet cattle and
18 months for dairy cattle.
The new regulations also re
quire two clean blood tests of
all eligible cattle in a beef herd
during a period of not less than
60 days or more than 6 months
after removal of brucellosis re
actors before the herd is declar
ed bucellosis free,
Those operators who turn cat

tnree months old and aren't
gathered again before some are
eight months old may have to
mane a decision concerninc
