Body Condition Scoring

Description

The illustrated manual guides you step by step through the assessment of a dairy cow’s body condition based on its energy reserves, which are assessed by view and feeling the cow’s body. Regular body condition scoring during the lactation and dry period provides a good indication of a cow’s nutritional status.
