Another South Canterbury farm has tested positive for Mycoplasma bovis. The farm is reported to be in the Waimate district.

The cattle disease was first confirmed in New Zealand in July last year.

This is the 18th positive test. It has been found on 10 farms in South Canterbury, five in Southland, two in Ashburton and one in Hawke's Bay.
