Abstract

Reproductive efficiency is directly related to economic efficiency in dairy farms. Genital diseases affect reproductive performance, but it is not well known which diseases have reproductive effects. In this study, the most frequently occurring diseases from calving to pregnancy in cows at a tie-stall dairy farm were investigated as to whether they affected reproductive performance.
