摘要

摘要在之前的一项研究(评估1)中,使用农场评估工具在魁北克60个奶牛场建立了一个标准,使用基于动物、摊位和管理的奶牛舒适度测量。本后续研究(评估2)的目的是使用相同的奶牛舒适度评估工具,对预计从应用建议的变更中受益最大的原始农场子集进行重新评估,并确定变更对奶牛舒适度的影响。从农场的子样本中,有24个农场报告称,根据评估1的建议,为了提高奶牛的舒适度,对摊位进行了修改(领养者),而其余10个农场则没有(非领养者)。该评估工具包括19个目标领域,根据奶牛舒适度的衡量标准,将其分为9个关键领域,其中考虑了住房、饲料水、健康和福利。评估1的农场报告提高了生产者对农场奶牛舒适措施问题的认识,根据基于奶牛身体尺寸的建议,摊位设计有所改进,受伤率有所降低。作为福利改善战略的一部分,对奶牛舒适度措施的常规重新评估对于支持目标实现的改善可能很重要。

Reassessing cow comfort measures on Canadian dairy farms after a recommendation of improvements
Abstract In a previous study (Assessment 1), an on-farm assessment tool was used to establish a standard across 60 Quebec dairy farms using animal-, stall-, and management-based measures of cow comfort. The objective of the present follow-up study (Assessment 2) was to perform a reassessment using an identical cow comfort assessment tool on a subset of the original farms expected to benefit most from applying the recommended changes, and to determine the effects of the modifications on cow comfort. From the subsample of farms, 24 reported applying stall modifications based on recommendations from Assessment 1 with the aim of promoting cow comfort (Adopters), while the remaining 10 farms did not (Non-adopters). The assessment tool included 19 target areas, grouped into 9 critical areas based on measures of cow comfort that considered housing, feed-water, health, and welfare. The on-farm report of Assessment 1 was found to increase producer awareness of issues in cow comfort measures on farms, as shown by an improvement in stall design according to recommendations based on cow body dimensions and reduced injury prevalence. Routine reassessment of cow comfort measures may be important to use in supporting target achievement improvements as part of welfare improvement strategies.

期刊介绍: Published since 1957, this quarterly journal contains new research on all aspects of animal agriculture and animal products, including breeding and genetics; cellular and molecular biology; growth and development; meat science; modelling animal systems; physiology and endocrinology; ruminant nutrition; non-ruminant nutrition; and welfare, behaviour, and management. It also publishes reviews, letters to the editor, abstracts of technical papers presented at the annual meeting of the Canadian Society of Animal Science, and occasionally conference proceedings.
