Body Condition Score for Cattle
Body 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.
