A historical note outlines a method to throw and restrain cows or bulls for surgical tasks such as dehorning ringing or castration. It describes using 35 to 40 feet of rope with loops around neck and legs and a main pulling rope to the rear toward the desired lie side. Pregnant cows should not be thrown. The process includes turning the head back nose up and using a handhold on the upper lip to hold the animal while a second person keeps taut the casting rope.
A balanced ration is essential as cows may consume much feed yet lack elements needed for milk. Corn fodder alone is insufficient since it lacks protein and enough succulence to sustain a satisfactory milk flow.
Dairy workers are advised to thoroughly wash and sterilize all milking machine parts pails and covers with steam after every milking to ensure hygiene and prevent contamination.
In preparing cows for milking the same care as milking by hand is needed. Teats must be very clean to obtain clean milk.
Systematic feeding of good cows can raise dairy profits by improving milk yield and herd health. Implement balanced rations, consistent milking schedules, and regular nutrition audits to maximize production and profitability.
