ResuméBody condition scoring (BCS) is a systematic visual assessment of cattle body fat reserves and nutritional status. Formalized by dairy nutritionists in the 1980s-1990s (Edmonson and Ferguson), BCS integrates palpation of bony landmarks and observation of body shape to quantify energy stores on a standardized scale. The method is essential for nutritional management, health monitoring, and reproductive performance in dairy and beef cattle.Herd reproductive performance assessment integrates multiple metrics to evaluate the efficiency of breeding programs and overall population fertility. Formalized in the 1990s-2000s by dairy veterinarians and herd health specialists, the method combines individual animal records (conception rates, calving intervals) with population-level indicators (age structure, open days, pregnancy rate) to identify reproductive constraints. Assessment is fundamental to dairy profitability and sustainability.
