Two years of the national collection of health disorders in Czech dairy cows, abstract on XVIII. Middle –european buiatrics congress, 30. 5.-30. 6. 2018, Eger, Hungary

Original language description

Abstract in Proceedings XVIII. Middle european Buiatrics congress 30. 5.-30. 6. 2018, Eger, Hungary. In both studies (first 2016/second 2017) the health data in dairy cattle were gathered retrospectively from farmers via on-line survey for the period from July through June. Besides other information, the studies collected data on the treatment (2016)/occurrence (2017) of 20/27 common health disorders in dairy cows. The studies covered 289,802/281,914 cows (78/76% of Czech dairy cows) of which about 50% were Holstein. To identify the farms with incomplete data, we used a condition of minimum occurrence. Each farm with more than 20 evaluated lactations had to report at least 1 record of particular health disorder to be included in the evaluation of the disorder. The reported health events were expressed as lactational incidence rate LIR (number of affected lactations divided by number of lactations at risk) x 100. For editing the database and calculations we used the SAS 9.4 software. At least one disorder was reported in 45/55% of cows. Clinical mastitis was the most common disease (LIR 18.6/17.9%) followed by metritis (11.3/10.9%), cystic ovary disease (7.0/10.9%) and retained placenta (5.0/5.5%) or endometritis (4.3/6.5%). Digital dermatitis (2.8/5.1%) and interdigital phlegmon (1.9/3.5%) were the frequently reported foot diseases. Primary ketosis (2.7/2.2%) and milk fever (1.7/1.8%) were the most frequently reported clinical metabolic diseases. Many farms failed to report some events. In fact, 87/98% of them sent data on mastitis, over 75% reported on orthopedic disorders and less than 25/30% on metabolic diseases, except for milk fever, which was reported by 49/55% of farms. Despite certain limitations, and after cautious editing, the data from Czech farmers are usable for further processing, comparisons and genetic evaluation of cattle health.
