The transition between the dry and lactating periods is fundamental for the health and performance of dairy cows. Commonly on farms, animal management conditions in the transition period are inappropriate (i.e., heat stress, limited availability of food and water), increasing the risk of peri-partum diseases and reduced milk production. Body condition score (BCS) subjectively determines the amount of subcutaneous adipose tissue of an animal and the change in BCS subjectively estimates the energy balance of the animal, as a change in 0.25 unit in BCS represents a change in approximately 18 kg in body weight. The objectives of the current study were to determine the association between body condition score change during the dry- period ([...
