Dry Cow Management

What is it?

Cows need time out of milk to get into good condition before calving. Good dry cow management sets cows up for the next season – transition is too late. Poor dry cow management can lead to inadequate udder repair, increased mastitis risk, poor body condition, and decreased milk production in the next lactation cycle, affecting overall herd productivity.

Symptoms

  • Increased cases of mastitis
  • Weight loss or poor body condition
  • Lower milk production
  • Increased metabolic disease, like ketosis and down cows
  • Increase rates of lameness
