Relationships between Body Weight and Milk Yield, and Factors Affecting Related Traits in Holstein cows
Öz: This study was conducted to investigate the relationships between body weight (BW) and milk
yield, and post-partum BW and their changes during parity and stage of lactation in Holstein cows. This study
was conducted on a private dairy cattle farm in Kastamonu province in the Mid-Black Sea Region of Turkey.
The study material included 2133 records from 273 Holstein cows calved between 2016 and 2017 years. Parity
(from 1 to 5) and stage of lactations (from 1 to 10) were used to be environmental factors affecting traits. The
effect of parity and stage of lactation on BW and milk yield were significant (P<0.05). BW and milk yield
increased with advancing lactation until the fourth parity, then declined in the fifth parity. The lowest BW was
observed in the first two months of lactation, and it increased linearly with following lactation periods. Milk yield
was low in the first month of lactation and then decreased linearly until the end of lactation. Correlations between
BW and milk yield were all positive and ranged from 0.201 to 0.588. BW changes in early to mid-lactation were
phenotypically correlated with milk yield. Finally, based on the findings in present study, it is suggested that
monitoring BW change in early and mid-lactation can be used as a management tool to improve the milk yield
in dairy herds.

Öz: Bu çalışma Holstein ineklerde canlı ağırlık (CA) ile süt verimi ve doğum sonrası CA arasındaki ilişkileri
ve bunların laktasyon sırası ve laktasyon dönemlerindeki değişimlerini araştırmak amacıyla yapılmıştır. Bu
çalışma, Türkiye'nin Orta Karadeniz Bölgesi'nde Kastamonu ilinde bulunan özel bir süt sığırcılığı çiftliğinde
yürütülmüştür. Çalışma materyalini, 2016 ve 2017 yılları arasında buzağılayan 273 Holstein ineğinin 2133
kaydını oluşturmaktadır. Laktasyon sırası (1-5 arası) ve laktasyon dönemi (1-10 arası) özellikleri etkili çevresel
faktörler olarak kullanılmıştır. CA ve süt verimi üzerine laktasyon sırası ve laktasyon döneminin etkisi önemlidir
(P<0.05). CA ve süt verimi laktasyonun ilerlemesiyle dördüncü laktasyona kadar artmış, ardından beşinci
laktasyonda düşmüştür. En düşük CA laktasyonun ilk iki ayında gözlenmiş ve sonraki laktasyon dönemleri ile
doğrusal olarak artmıştır. Süt verimi laktasyonun ilk ayında en düşük ve daha sonra laktasyonun sonuna kadar
doğrusal olarak azalmıştır. CA ve süt verimi arasındaki korelasyonların tümü pozitiftir ve 0.201 ile 0.588 arasında
değişmiştir. Erken ve orta laktasyon dönemindeki CA değişimleri süt verimi ile fenotipik olarak ilişkilidir. Sonuç
olarak, bu çalışmadaki bulgulara dayalı olarak, erken ve orta laktasyonda CA değişiminin izlenmesinin, süt
sığırcılığı sürülerinde süt verimini iyileştirmek için bir yönetim aracı olarak kullanılabileceği önerilmektedir.
