The main diseases of lactating cows occur in the first
two months of lactation, i.e. during the production
peak of productivity. They are caused by the changes
in metabolism during the transition period, which are
not supported by adequate changes in the organization
of feeding, or rather sufficient to ensure cows with
nutrients, which causes a number of closely related
diseases. To allocate any of them is not possible, as
their manifestation depends on a number of reasons,
and depending on situation may prevail one or the
other. Among the most common diseases, there are
ketosis, milk fever (paresis of maternity), dysplasia of
the abomasum, acidosis, mastitis, endometritis,
laminitis and leukemia. These diseases cause the
greatest problems in herds with high productivity, and
are caused by changes in metabolism in cows in the
transition period and the inability to properly feed the
animals at this time. To identify the causes of these
diseases we do not need to study each of them
individually - it is enough to deal with the peculiarities
of metabolism. This period includes the month before
calving and the first or second month of lactation, but
the most important are 3 weeks before calving and 3
weeks later. In order to prevent metabolic disorders
there were developed and tested feed for feeding cows
before calving and immediately after calving. Their
effect was studied on milk production and health status
The steady development of modern pig farming
dictates the need for new priorities, opportunities and
requirements, such as reducing harmful environmental
impacts, more efficient use of resources, and provision
of comfortable conditions for the pig housing. The
creation of an appropriate ITS BAT in the branch will
optimize the activity of agricultural pig breeding
enterprises due to the transition to performance of
requirements based on BAT technological parameters,
to solve the problem of energy efficiency, import
substitution and increase of competitiveness. Their
integration will have an effect not only on improving
the ecological state of the environment, but also on the
economy of agricultural enterprises providing a new
approach to agricultural activity
