Abstract
Dairy farmers know the strong influence of an ideal body condition on the first 100 days of lactation. Just through an optimal body condition the period of a negative energy balance can be as short as possible. The question is which opportunities are provided to the farmer to score the body condition of the cows. Therefore it was the aim of a diploma thesis to evaluate the techniques of automated body weight measurement, of body condition scoring and of back fat thickness (BFT) measurement on the dairy herd of the research farm Frankenforst.
