The transition period is a pivotal time in the production cycle of the dairy cow. It is estimated that between 30% and 50% of all cows experience metabolic or infectious disease during this time. One of the most common and economically consequential... Read More about Predictive modelling of deviation from expected milk yield in transition cows on automatic milking systems.
