[QUOTE="gizmom, post: 798676, member: 13402"] The PCR test is considered to be as good as doing the three cultures. We test any bull that has been exposed to a cow, just to be safe and they even though they are our cows, we have never had a bull test positive. That being said we still have one customer that will not purchase a bull unless it is a virgin, he had trich get into his herd several years ago and he is not willing to take a chance he just doesn't trust any of the test. When we test we use the PCR test. I heard that Mississippi has passed a law or rule that no bull is allowed to be brought into the state unless he is a virgin or has a clean trich test. Please keep in mind that at this point this is unverified information, if anyone on this site is from Mississippi and can verify it would be good to know.
