  1. The behaviour of interest was “contacting the veterinarian for a visit the same day as noting a case of mild clinical mastitis in a lactating dairy cow” for the herd health programme where the veterinarian initiates treatment (ModuleVet), and “start medical treatment on the same day as noting a case of mild clinical mastitis in a lactating dairy cow” for the herd health programme in which farmers may initiate medical treatment themselves (Module2).
  2. n = the number of observations. Q1 = first quartile. Q3 = third quartile.
