Short communication: Genetic variation in choice consistency for cows accessing automatic milking units.

Journal of dairy science - 1 Dec 2016

Løvendahl Peter, Sørensen Lars Peter, Bjerring Martin, Lassen Jan

Abstract excerpt

Dairy cows milked in automatic milking systems (AMS) with more than 1 milking box may, as individuals, have a preference for specific milking boxes if allowed free choice. Estimates of quantitative genetic variation in behavioral traits of farmed animals have previously been reported, with estimates of heritability ranging widely. However, for the consistency of choice in dairy cows, almost no published estimates...
