Farmer attitudes and motivation affect their health-seeking behavior in relation to mastitis in dairy cows—A survey on Swedish dairy farms with automatic milking systems Open
Farmers play a key role in mastitis management, particularly in deciding whether and when to contact a veterinarian or initiate treatment. This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate how herd udder health status (measured as average he…

Iron status in piglets at three days of age and at weaning and possible seasonal effects on the blood haemoglobin levels in a Swedish outdoor pig-producing farm Open
Background Piglets are born with limited stores of iron, and with an increasing number of live-born piglets, there may be a risk that the sows cannot provide enough iron to their offspring. The iron content in soil may not meet the demands…

Forecasting chronic mastitis using automatic milking system sensor data and gradient-boosting classifiers Open
Although most of the losses due to mastitis per case in dairy production are estimated to be caused by clinical cases, subclinical cases, especially chronic, can also be problematic due to milk production losses and the risk of transmissio…
