Research output: Contribution to conference › Poster › Professional

Abstract

The daily lying behaviour in commercial dairy farms can be accurately estimated using continuous recording of at least six out of eleven cows (40%). The sampling methods applied to the automated monitoring systems are time‐ and labour‐saving tools that can be used to assess cow comfort and welfare.
