The cost of the clinical and subclinical mastitis was estimated, taking into account the milk production, treatment costs and commercial milk value.

Was an incidence average of 18,3% of subclinical mastitis, whereas the incidence of the clinical form of mastitis was of 5,35%. The average monthly cost of each animal with mastitis was $185.40; altogether the mastitis had a cost of $30.966,34 annually, corresponding $12.470,75 (40,3%) to subclinical mastitis and $18.459,59 (59,7%) to clinical mastitis.
