Short communication: Born to be a loser cow?

Journal of dairy science - 1 Sept 2010

Jørgensen H B H, Pedersen L D, Sørensen M K, Thomsen P T, Norberg E

Abstract excerpt

Over the last few years, an increasing awareness has arisen in Denmark of the existence of cows with a generally lowered health and production status, referred to as "loser cows." A previous study has estimated that the overall prevalence of loser cows in Danish Holstein herds is 3.2%. The aim of...
