What this calculator does
Calculates Dairy Somatic Cell Count (SCC) Milk Production Loss Sizer using the formula verified against the cited source.
What your result means
An estimate from the inputs you enter, within the scope stated below — not advice.
Formula
Linear score LS = log₂(SCC ÷ 100,000) + 3; scenario loss = max(0, LS − 2) × your loss per LS unit
The step-by-step working for your own numbers appears with the result above and in the PDF report.
Frequently asked questions
Symbols and assumptions
- Inputs
- The values entered in the fields above
- • Somatic cell linear score=log2(SCC cells/mL/100,000)+3. A chosen loss model relative to LS 2 can use max(0,LS−2)×specified lactation loss per LS unit.

- • SCC must be cells/mL, not a display already in thousands. The loss coefficient depends on lactation/parity and chosen reference; a user-entered constant is a scenario. Original gives negative “loss” below LS 2; define floor/no-extrapolation. This transformation does not identify infection or estimate full mastitis costs.
Important limitation
This is an educational estimate based only on the values and formula shown. Verify current rates, rules, units, and professional standards before relying on the result. It is not personalized financial or investment advice.
Quick reference
| Scenario | Somatic cell count (cells/mL, not thousands) (cells/mL) | Milk loss per LS unit above 2 (scenario) (kg per lactation) | Linear score |
|---|---|---|---|
| Worked example | 3,00,000 | 200 | 4.585 LS |
| Half the amounts | 1,50,000 | 100 | 3.585 LS |
| Double the amounts | 6,00,000 | 400 | 5.585 LS |
