Abstract
Bovine subclinical mastitis stands out as a significant challenge in the dairy industry, leading to substantial milk losses. The issue becomes more alarming as lactating cows frequently face severe infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, resulting in detrimental udder damage. The conventional approach of combating such infections involves prolonged antibiotic treatments, contributing to the emergence of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) in cows. Compounding the issue, S. aureus bacteria can undergo modifications, transforming into the formidable Methicillin-Resistant S. aureus (MRSA). Addressing this pressing concern requires exploring alternative solutions, and one promising avenue lies in the realm of medicinal plants. Leveraging the inherent antibacterial properties of phytochemicals found in various medicinal plants could offer a sustainable and effective approach to managing bovine mastitis. Not only do these botanical remedies provide a potential solution to the challenges posed by conventional antibiotic treatments, but they also offer a more environmentally friendly and holistic approach to safeguarding the health of dairy cows and preserving milk production in the industry.
