Abstract

Detection of lameness is a bottleneck on many dairy farms. Large dairy farms set goals to decrease the costs of labor. Lameness economic losses can be amplified by delayed detection and treatment. An accurate electronic lameness detection system could minimize losses caused by lameness. The objective of this study was to evaluate the correlation of a visual locomotion scoring system and an electronic scoring system (stepmetrix).
