  • Advice and guidance on mobility scoring

    Topics:
    • Livestock Farming, 
    • Dairy farming

    Date published: 15 September 2008

    Mobility scoring is a system whereby cows are scored on a scale of 0-3 based on their mobility, with 0 being good and 3 being a severely lame cow.

    The CAFRE mobility scoring record sheet is a practical tool in which to record lame cows in your herd, that is, scoring 2 or 3. The sheet highlights four key time points to carry out mobility scoring, with a view to increasing it to once per month.
