The five point plan was initially developed in the 1960’s by the National Institute for Research into Dairying (NIRD). The aim was to reduce the level of clinical and subclinical [[mastitis]] in the UK national dairy herd primarily through the control of contagious pathogens. Its implementation was successful in both regards, particularly in reducing the average herd somatic cell count (SCC), primarily an indicator of subclinical mastitis.
