Time budgets of dairy cows in a cow-calf contact system with automatic milking

JDS Communications
Daily time budgets can be used to determine the amount of time cows allocate to different behaviors throughout the day and can be useful when evaluating housing and management systems. There is a growing interest in keeping dairy cows and calves together

A Review of Nonsteroidal Anti‐Inflammatory Drugs for Food‐Producing Animals With a Focus on Potential Applications for Farmed Finfish

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT In finfish aquaculture, there are several inflammatory diseases impacting productivity and animal welfare, however there are limited options available to veterinarians to treat inflammation and pain in fish. Nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used in terrestrial animals raised for human consumption to treat a range of ...

Chilean Dolphins (Cephalorhynchus eutropia) Produce Both Narrowband High‐Frequency and Broadband Clicks

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Most dolphin species produce broadband biosonar clicks for echolocating prey, and whistles and burst‐pulsed calls for communication purposes. Seven dolphin species were previously reported to only produce clicks of a narrowband high‐frequency (NBHF) type, very similar to the clicks produced by porpoises.

‘Becoming With’ on the Dairy Farm: A Post‐Humanist Inquiry Into More‐Than‐Human Socialisation and Agency

Sociologia Ruralis, Volume 66, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Literature has described dairy cows as both passive objects and active participants in the milk production process. This study explores how this passivity and activity co‐exist through an inquiry into dairy cow agency within a post‐anthropocentric conceptualisation of socialisation theories.

Investigating Dietary microRNA Stability and Function Using a Transgenic Milk Model With Unique microRNA Sequences

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 17, 15 September 2026.
Upon ingestion, milk extracellular vesicles (EVs) carrying bioactive cargo such as microRNAs may survive digestion and remain bioactive. Here, milk from wild‐type and transgenic cows expressing unique microRNAs was used to isolate and characterize four EV populations.

Cow-calf contact: a single-herd observational study of AMS yield during the first 100 days in milk

Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica
An increasing number of dairy farmers plan to implement cow-calf contact (CCC) in their herd which necessitates descriptions of the cows` performance in different systems. The aim of the study was to describe (1) Automatic milking system (AMS) milk yield

Delaying postpartum separation by 3, 5, or 7 days compared with immediate separation: A pilot study on production and health indicators in Holstein cows and their calves

Journal of Dairy Science
: Our objectives were to describe the effects of full cow-calf contact for 3, 5, or 7 d after calving compared with immediate separation on milk yield and components, cow metabolic indicators, milking characteristics, and IMI status, as well as on calf ...
