Table 1. Descriptive statistics (averaged on week basis) for milk yield (kg/d), milk fat, milk protein, Linear Score, body condition score (BCS), temperature humidity index (THI) and group dry matter intake (DMI) (Number of cows = 20).
Table 2. Daily meanTable Footnotea values (averaged on week basis) for standing and lying behaviour patterns (standing time, lying time, lying bout frequency, lying bout duration). (Number of cows = 20, Number of total observations = 432).
Figure 1. Daily lying behaviour pattern in three different stages of lactation (0–14 DIM, 42–56 DIM, 98–112 DIM). DIM: days in milk.
