Investigations were carried out during a period of 3(1)/(2) month with an AMS of the company DeLaval named Voluntary Milking System (VMS). Behaviour observations were conducted on 42 cows in the waiting area in front of the VMS by real time and video observation. The number of total visits to the VMS was 5.3 per day, 3.2 of these were visits for milking. The number of total visits to the VMS was influenced by different factors like, time, day in system, lactation stadium lactation, number and milk performance. 70% of all visits for milking were voluntary. In 59% of all visits to the waiting area cows went into the VMS. In 41% of all visits the cows returned back to the resting area. Most cows did not show any aggressive behaviour during their visits to the waiting area, only in 5% of all visits aggressive behaviour occurred. The average waiting time for cows standing in front of the VMS was 6.30 min. This time was significantly influenced by day time, day in system, lactation stadium, milk performance and leaving direction."],["dc.identifier.isi","000178727400002"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/39672"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Eugen Ulmer Gmbh Co"],["dc.relation.issn","0044-5401"],["dc.title","Automatic milking: Systematic influences on behaviour of dairy cows in the waiting area and their visit frequency to the AMS"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Two farrowing rooms, each with 6 pens, and I nursery with 4 pens were used. In total, data were obtained from 24 sows and their litters. In each farrowing room, the solid barriers between 3 farrowing pens were removed on d 12 after farrowing, and the sows remained confined in their crates (experimental group). In the other 3 farrowing pens of each farrowing room, sows and their litters were kept under conventional conditions until weaning (control group). All piglets were weaned 28 d after birth. After weaning, piglets from each group remained together in 1 pen of the nursery. The behavior of sows (lying, standing, sitting, nursing) and piglets (lying, active, suckling) in the farrowing rooms was observed for 24 h before and for 48 h after removal of the barriers between the pens. In addition, behavior (active, lying, feeding, agonistic behavior) of piglets was observed in the nursery during the initial 48-h period after weaning. Each piglet was weighed on d 5, 12, and 28 after birth and thereafter weekly until the fifth week of rearing. In the farrowing room, mixing of litters did not influence behavior of piglets and sows. Preweaning weight gain of the piglets did not differ (P = 0.60) between the treatments. In the initial 48 h after weaning, less agonistic behavior (P < 0.001) was observed in piglets belonging to the experimental group. During 5 wk of rearing, piglets in the experimental group gained more weight compared with the control group (P = 0.05). The advantage shown by the experimental group became especially conspicuous in the first week after weaning (P = 0.05).

An automatically ventilated nursery with 4 identical pens was used. Twenty piglets weaned at 21 d were housed in each pen. The experiment was repeated 3 times. In total, data were obtained from 240 piglets of 12 pens. The pens were provided with a sensor-controlled, automatic feeding device, which dosed a ready-mixed mash in a trough. In each of 2 of the pens, the feed was mixed with warm water at 36 C, during the first week of weaning. This heated mash had a temperature of 34 C at the outlet of the automatic feeding device (experimental group). In the 2 control groups, the water was not heated and the temperature of the mash was 14 C at the outlet of the automatic feeding device. From the second week of weaning, the mash had a temperature of 14 C at the outlet of the automatic feeding device in all 4 pens. Piglets were weighed at weaning, at weekly intervals through 49 d after weaning, and on d 139 after weaning. Behavior of the whole group, as well as behavior of selected focal animals, was evaluated for the first 48 h after weaning. In addition, skin condition of piglets was assessed on day of weaning and on d 7, 14, and 21 after weaning. The amount of feed consumed by the piglets was recorded on a daily basis throughout the whole period of nursery. Over the total period of the study, piglets in the experimental group gained 3.98 +/- 1.66 kg (P = 0.047) more than the control group. The difference was particularly clear during the nursery period ( 49 d) when the experimental group gained 0.89 +/- 0.23 kg more than the control group (P = 0.03). Although piglets in the control group consumed 37.15 +/- 0.15 kg of feed over the complete nursery period, the experimental group consumed 42.56 +/- 0.15 kg per piglet (P = 0.023). By heating the mash feed in the first week after weaning, both growth performance as well as feed consumption of piglets could be increased.

Airborne particle concentrations were detected online with the gravimetrically measuring analyzer TEOM 1400a that was equipped successively with different inlets to measure the particle fractions PM(20), PM(10), and PM(2.5). The mixing of oats with just 1% (w/w) of each of the liquid additives led to a significant reduction in airborne particle generation in all three particle fractions with respect to the samples without additives (P < .0001).

Two different types of straw (wheat and rye) and wood shavings were analyzed. The deep litter (substrate) was made of 25 kg of the respective bedding material, 60 kg horse feces, and 60 L ammonium chloride solution (urea), and spread out in identical chambers over 19 days (n = 3). On days 1, 8, 15, and 19, total nitrogen, total carbon, and dry matter content of the substrate, as well as the pH in 500-g samples, were measured along with. At the end of each test period, the nitrite nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen, and ammonium nitrogen contents of the leachate were analyzed. The wheat straw substrate emitted the highest concentration of NH3 (4.31 mg/m(3); P < .0001) and the wood shavings substrate emitted the lowest (1.73 mg/m(3); P < .0001); the rye straw substrate generated 3.05 mg/m(3). In addition, significant differences occurred during days 1 to 3 with respect to the generation of the gases NH3, methane, nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide, and water vapor, and after the opening of the chamber on day 15. The nitrogen losses through the leachate occurred mainly in the form of nitrate, where the leachate from the wheat straw substrate had a significantly higher amount of nitrate nitrogen (44.56 mg) as compared with the leachates of the rye straw (14.49 mg; P <= .0001) and the wood shaving substrates (22.62 mg; P = .0010).
