[QUOTE="hillsdown, post: 576952, member: 5106"] [url=http://www.johnes.org/general/faqs.html]http://www.johnes.org/general/faqs.html[/url] Here is another direct link to that site ,it has really good info. You are right Jeanne management plays a huge part in when a cow shows symptoms, I have never seen symptoms in an animal under 6 years of age. Because testing gives false negatives as well as false positives you need do do it a few times. USDA renewed it's 20 million dollar funding for studying Johne's in beef and dairy cattle last spring so maybe they will find something that can help us eradicate the disease . Canada has continued their research programs as well. The urine test that is being developed I have heard that it is supposed to be able to test for Johne's as well but am not positive so do not hold me to that. [/QUOTE]
