Behavior and performance changes when tied dairy cows were moved to a loose housing system in a cubicle system were investigated. Behavioral observations were made for 3 consecutive days in 3 periods after transition. The cows (n = 105) were observed on 18 sampling occasions for 1 month. Recordings were made of body positions and general and social behaviors. Monthly milk records were collected 1 year before and 1 year after transition. Cows walked more during the 1st observation period than during the other periods (p < .05). Walking activity also differed between days when nested to period (p < .05). During the 1st period, cows ruminated while standing more than during the 3rd period (p < .05). Cows ate and groomed less and vocalized more during the 1st period (p < .05). It was concluded that after transition from a tied to a cubicle system, several behaviors were affected during the 1st days, and milk production of multiparous cows was negatively affected, although this effect was not long-term.
研究了将拴系式奶牛转移至隔栏式散养系统时其行为和生产性能的变化。在过渡期后的3个阶段连续3天进行行为观察。在1个月内的18个采样时刻对105头奶牛进行观察。记录身体姿势以及一般行为和社交行为。收集转移前1年和转移后1年的月度产奶记录。奶牛在第1个观察期比其他时期走动更多（p < 0.05）。按阶段嵌套时，不同日期的行走活动也存在差异（p < 0.05）。在第1阶段，奶牛站立反刍的时间比第3阶段更多（p < 0.05）。奶牛在第1阶段进食和梳理毛发的时间减少，发声增多（p < 0.05）。得出的结论是，从拴系式系统转变为隔栏式系统后，最初几天有几种行为受到影响，经产奶牛的产奶量受到负面影响，不过这种影响并非长期的。
