ЛАКТАЦИОННАЯ ДЕЯТЕЛЬНОСТЬ КОРОВ-ПЕРВОТЕЛОК В УСЛОВИЯХ РОБОТИЗИРОВАННОГО ДОЕНИЯ

Abstract

Studies have been conducted to assess the lactation productivity of Kholmogory breed Tatarstan type first-calf cows with robotic milking systems. The frequency of milking distribution during the day was observed: in the interval of 4-6 hours, the minimum number of milking occurs (6.4 %), in the interval of 12-14 hours, the maximum number (10.7 %). Most milking (34.7 %) is carried out in 6-8 hours after the previous one. More frequent milking (after 4-6 hours) is rarely observed is in 6 % of cases. 48.6 % of milking occurs after the 8-12 hour interval. For an interval of more than 12 hours occurs for 10.7 % of milking. With an increase in the milking interval, the milk yield also increases. At 4-6 hour interval, the milk yield is 5.2 kg, at 6-8 hour is 6.0 kg. An increase in the milking interval by 2 hours is accompanied by an increase in the single milk yield by 0.8-1.3 kg. During the first month, the cows were milked the least number of times, which was 75, or 2.4 times per day; during the second month, they were milked 86 times (2.8 per day). By the 4th month, milkings reached a peak of 93 times (3 per day). By the 5th month, a decline was observed (by 11 % compared to the 4th month). The peak milk production takes place during the second month of lactation, 681.3 kg. By the third month, a decline was observed by 4.8 %, to 648.1 kg. The maximum decrease in milk production, by 12.4 %, occurred between the 5th and 6th month of the tested lactation period.
