Dystocia in Dairy Cattle: Causes, Consequences, and Preventive Measures for Improved Reproductive Health and Productivity
Abstract: Dystocia, or calving difficulty, is a significant reproductive challenge in dairy cattle, with far-reaching impacts on animal health, productivity, and farm economics. This review paper comprehensively explores the primary causes, consequences, and effective preventive measures associated with dystocia in dairy cows. Dystocia arises from a complex interplay of genetic, physiological, environmental, and management-related factors, including breed predisposition, maternal and fetal size, pelvic structure, and gestational nutrition. The consequences of dystocia …
