Feeding and Managing Dry Cows
Proper management and nutrition of the dry cow are critical for obtaining maximum dry matter intake, good health, increased reproductive efficiency, and optimum milk production in the following lactation. A successful dry cow program requires the dairy manager to know which disorders the dry cows are prone to, how to prevent them, and when necessary, how the manager and veterinarian may treat them.
