Dairy Animal Care Chapter 5 - Nutrition

Animal should have access to feed and water on a aily basis; in a consistent manner, on a regular schedule, and according to their specific requirements. Nutritional management is greatly improved when producers take the time to observe their animals to maintain uniform groupings, and give attention to animals lagging behind. Body condition scoring should be used to monitor the energy balance and nutritional condition of the herd.
