Dry Period Management - Shortened or Conventional Dry Period?
Original language description
It is challenge for modern dairy farmer successfully manage transition period of dairy cows. The transition period has been often accompanied by decreased dry matter intake whereas milk production of high-yielding dairy cows increases dramatically at thebeginning of the lactation. The energy deficit results in negative energy balance and ultimately in impaired health and reproductive function. Therefore new management and feeding strategies would be desirable to increase voluntary dry matter intake after calving and ease transition the cow from dry-off period to the lactation period after calving. With the objective to study the effects of shortened dry period length and type of a diet on feed intake and lactation performance, 29 high-yielding dairy cows were randomly divided in two balanced groups. The control group of cows (C, n=14) assigned to traditional dry period of approximately 57 days was fed a diet corresponding with nutrition requirements of dry cows. Approximately three we
