The degree of the influence of behavioral activity of cows on milk productivity in the conditions of robotic milking

The results of studies of the ethological activity of cows in the conditions of robotic milking are presented. The share of the influence of behavioral acts, activity indices on milk productivity was estimated. It was found that animals spend 49.1 % of the daily time lying down, 50.9 % spend standing. 19.7 % of the time cows took food. 34.5 % of the time was devoted to the process of chewing gum. Such behavioral acts as the duration of lying and standing (n2 = 0.23), feed intake (n2 = 0.19) had the greatest impact on the dairy productivity of cows. The share of the influence of the level of milk productivity on the number of milking was 63.3 %. The share of the influence of activity indices on milk productivity was food 0.13, motor 0.20 and total 0.21.
