The welfare of farmed animals such as cattle is an increasing
concern for consumers and regulatory agencies. This book explores
the science behind our understanding of dairy cow behaviour and
ways to improve their welfare. Understanding the behaviour and
improving the welfare of dairy cattle summarises this wealth of
recent research and reviews dairy cattle behaviour in areas such as
cognition, learning, pain and stress. The collection features
authoritative assessments by leading experts on developments in
welfare indicators, monitoring and certification, as well as
approaches to improve welfare practices of calves, heifers and
transition cows at different stages of production including
housing, transport and slaughter. With its distinguished author
team and wide-ranging coverage, Understanding the behaviour and
improving the welfare of dairy cattle will be a standard reference
for university and other researchers in dairy and veterinary
science as well as ethology. It will also be a key reference for
government and other agencies involved in regulating and monitoring
farm animal welfare, as well as dairy farmers and companies
processing milk and other dairy products.
