Abstract:

Lameness is one of the most important economic and welfare challenges for dairy cows.
The main infectious diseases of the cow’s foot are digital dermatitis, interdigital necrobacillosis (foot rot) and heel horn erosion.
Low hygiene, high humidity and systemic and local immune disturbances can predispose the cows to these infectious diseases.
Prevention and control of the infectious diseases of the feet in cows is based on welfare, hygienic, nutritional and other management measures such as foot baths.
