? United DHIA is an organization of herds from five states working together to offer a cost effective way to provide dairy management records, to help producers maintain a healthy herd and return a profit. The company has over 60 years of experience as an organization providing information to member and non-member dairymen. Today, the company has 2... 6 Field Technicians going to farms to collect data and milk samples on a monthly basis and then they send samples to the lab located in Radford, Va via UPS or FedEx. The company test around 71,000 samples per month. The company's lab provides component testing such as butterfat, protein and somatic cell testing as well as milk urea nitrogen (MUN) and testing Johne's to members and non-members. The company is able to send field and lab information to the processing center, Dairy Records Management System (DRMS) in a timely fashion; the company's turnover rate is usually within one business day. Then records are compiled and sent back to member herds. If you have a milk sample that needs to be tested for something else such as DNA, Leukosis, Milk Pregnancy or BVD the company is able to send it to another lab after the company test it at the company's lab. The company is a proud member of the National DHIA and fully certified each year by Quality Certification Services (QCS) to ensure the company provides the most accurate results.
