Abstract

Estimation of the cattle’s body condition per the standard enables to control the general state of the animals and storage of the reserve substances in their bodies. The body condition is rated through 1-10 scoring scale system. According to the weather conditions and physiological state, the average body condition of the herd’s cows is estimated as 5-7 points, while emaciation and overfeeding - 3-8 points accordingly. The mentioned scoring system is applied for the productivity estimation in different breeds of beef cattle and their crossbreeds. The studies are still in process and the findings will be published in the upcoming articles.
