PRODUCTIVITY OF DAIRY COWS DEPENDING ON THE CONDITIONS OF MAINTNANCE

Abstract

The article presents the influence of microclimate parameters on the productivity of dairy cows. Keeping cows in a loose-box way with a better microclimate turned out to be more effective than keeping them in a tethered way. The temperature and relative humidity in this premise during the cold season were normal or closer to normal. In comfortable conditions, milk yield per cow was 6.4% higher and amounted to 23.8 kg against 21.8 kg.
