Acta vet. scand. 2001 42 131-137. - Sixty of the 65 dairy farms with cubicle houses in the Norwegian county of Oppland were included in a field study of the management of calving in 1990. The farmers recorded the location of the cow when giving birth farmer presence and whether assistance was given during calving occurrence of suckling and time after birth when cow and calf were separated. Such data were recorded for a total of 1125 calvings. About 10 occurred on pasture while 78 of the remaining calvings took place in the cubicle-equipped section. Thirteen percent calved in a calving pen the remaining cows being tethered at the time of calving. Thirty-two percent of the calvings took place in houses lacking a calving pen altogether. Farmers were present during 41 of the calvings. Suckling most frequently occurred after pasture calvings and was least frequent after calvings within the cubicle-equipped section of the cowhouse. Injuries to the calf caused by trampling or contact with fittings etc. were rare and no more common in association with calving in the cubicle-equipped section than with calving taking place with the cow isolated from the rest of the herd. All calves were removed from their dams within 24 h after birth. dairy cow cubicle housing cubicle refusal calving pen management.
