Description
The data correspond to a cross-sectional study designed to investigate factors associated with lameness in dairy cows on intensive farms in southern Brazil.
Farms: 38 freestall and 12 compost-bedded pack visited once in 2016. All lactating cows (n = 13,716) were examined and body condition score (BCS) and gait score were assessed. Additionally, some variables were collected through inspection of facilities and using data from an interview with farmers on routine herd management practices.
