Associations between sole ulcer, white line disease and digital dermatitis and the milk yield of 1824 dairy cows on 30 dairy cow farms in England and Wales from February 2003–November 2004 [PDF]
The milk yields of 1824 cows were used to investigate the effect of lesion-specific causes of lameness, based on farmer treatment and diagnosis of lame cows, on milk yield.

Abstract Background Livestock, especially ruminants, are a major source of global methane emissions, primarily produced by methanogenic archaea during enteric fermentation. We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to account for factors that could influence the relationship between ruminal methanogenic populations and methane emissions, such ...

Regulation of tea polyphenols on oxidative stress-induced diseases in dairy cows
A series of metabolic stress and changes in external environment such as pregnancy, delivery, lactation and high concentrate feeding, can easily induce oxidative stress in the body of periparturient cows, and then lead to the decline of antioxidant ...

Predicting methane production in dairy cows [PDF]
Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, to which enteric fermentation from ruminants contributes significantly. Reliable and accurate predictions of methane (CH₄) production from dairy cows would be of interest to develop mitigation strategies and for ...

Estrous behavior in dairy cows: identification of underlying mechanisms and gene functions
Selection in dairy cattle for a higher milk yield has coincided with declined fertility. One of the factors is reduced expression of estrous behavior. Changes in systems that regulate the estrous behavior could be manifested by altered gene expression ...

Genetic parameters of growth in dairy cattle and associations between growth and health traits [PDF]
Body weight (BW) observations on dairy cattle taken on average 35 times between birth and 1,000 d of life were used to estimate daily heritabilities and predict daily breeding values for both pregnancy-adjusted BW (PABW) and growth rate.

Abstract BACKGROUND This study created functional fermented goat milk by adding blackberry pulp and probiotics (Lactobacillus acidophilus LA‐5 and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis Bb‐12). The preparation involved two variations of fermented goat milk with blackberry (Rubus sp.), distinguished by the absence (fermented goat milk, FGM) or inclusion

Nutrition and Reproduction in Dairy Cows
Diagnosis of nutritional effects on herd fertility requires a systematic analysis of reproductive records in addition to quantifying the feeding program on the farm. Corroborative laboratory tests for specific deficiencies may be useful.
