As requested by the Central Technical Committee (CTC), in 1972 AIA set
up the Milking Control Service (SCM) that is in charge to check the
productive and functional features of milking plants used in farming.
The SCM technicians provide the service according to the institutional obligations
concerning the statics control of milking plans, and the verification of the tools
used for the measurement of production data. Periodically, the Metrological
Test and Confirm Center issues calibration certificates of ARA (Regional Breeders Association) or APA (Provincial Breeders
Association) equipment and of firms in charge for the installation of milking
plants.
This service, regulated by the “Disciplinary of Milking Control Service
Activity”, is managed by the central coordination of SCM operating in AIA. One
of the activities of the Coordinator of SCM is organising periodically training
courses for aspirant technicians which are qualified in case of passing the
practical test expected and after an internship period of 2 months at least.
Moreover, are expected seminars and refresher meetings for the SCM technicians
organized by the offices of its associates or from time to time on occasion of
important zootechnical events, also in collaboration with the leading companies
in the sector.
