“…The average DMI during the first week after calving was positively associated with the serum Ca concentration immediately after calving ( p < .01). This result agreed with those obtained by Wynn et al () and Reshalaitihan and Hanada (). Wynn et al () demonstrated that serum Ca concentration during the first week after calving was positively associated with the rumen contraction frequency and the DMI after calving.…”

“…A higher incidence of calving difficulty in first‐lactation heifers than in multiparous cows has already been reported (Berry, Lee, MacDonald, & Roche, ; Civelek, Celik, Avci, & Cingi, ). Reshalaitihan and Hanada () reported that the average DMI 6 days after calving was negatively associated with the calving score and urinary cortisol concentration at 4 days after calving and that the calving score and the urinary cortisol concentration were higher in first‐lactation heifers than in multiparous cows. It has also been reported that the DMI after calving was lower in cows with dystocia than in cows that calved normally (Bareille et al, ).…”

“…Teramura et al () showed that the recovery of serum calcium (Ca) concentrations declined during calving to the normal range, and a reduced rate of decline was associated with an increase in the parity number of the cow. Reshalaitihan and Hanada () reported a higher calving score in first‐lactation heifers than in multiparous cows. Since most of these factors change with the parity of cows, DMI immediately after calving and its limiting factors might also vary with the parity number.…”

“…Dry matter intake by dairy cows after calving is affected by many factors, such as diet composition (Beever, ; Dann et al, ), feeding behavior (Azizi, Kaufmann, & Hasselmann, ), digesta flow dynamics in the digestive tract (Grandl et al, ), nutritional status such as blood metabolites and body condition scores before and immediately after calving (Gransworthy & Topps, ; Janovick & Drackley, ; Wynn, Teramura, Sato, & Hanada, ), calving stress (Bareille, Beaudeau, Billon, Robert, & Faverdin, ; Reshalaitihan & Hanada, ), and milk yield (Reshalaitihan & Hanada, ). Azizi et al () observed an increased meal size and DMI in multiparous cows compared with first‐lactation heifers.…”

The annual milk yield of dairy cows has been increasing, but the lifetime parity of dairy cows has been gradually decreasing (Essl, 1998; Hare, Norman, & Wright, 2006). Since the economic efficiency of dairy farming is mostly a result of achieved milk production and dairy cow longevity (Heins, Hansen, & Vries, 2012), a reduction in the lifetime parity number in dairy cows directly influences the profitability of dairy farming (Sewalem, Kistemaker, Ducrocq, & Doormaal, 2005). The main reasons for dairy cow culling in the United States of America were reproductive failure, mastitis and udder problems, lameness or injury, other diseases, and poor milk production (USDA, 2007), and reproductive disorders are the most common cause of dairy cow culling in Japan (Nakada, 2006). Most of the aforementioned problems are associated with the nutritive status of the cows around the time of calving. Lee and Kim (2006) reported that a milk yield increase and body condition loss during early lactation as well as periparturient disorders caused reproductive failure in dairy cows. Grohn and Rajala-Schultz (2000) reported that an improvement in milk yield resulted in high incidence rates of reproductive health problems. The extensive energy requirements of high-producing dairy cows result in a severe negative energy balance, which may adversely impact postpartum health and fertility during the early lactation period (Butler & Smith, 1989; Lucy, 2001). In general, the increase rate of dry matter intake (DMI) after

“…Mammi et al (2021) identified that problematic calving is associated with reduced rumination and rest time for cows. The negative impact of heavy calving on the feed dry matter intake was also identified (Reshalaitihan & Hanada, 2019). A study by Antanaitis et al (2021) showed that heavy calving causes a decrease in the concentration of lactose in milk and increases the risk of mastitis.…”

Evaluation and selection of breeding bulls based on economically important characteristics is the main tool in modern systems of genetic improvement of dairy cattle. The purpose of the study was to analyse the influence of environmental and genetic factors on the traits of milk productivity, reproduction, productive longevity, and the difficulty of calving, to assess the genetic parameters and breeding value of breeding bulls based on these traits. The research material was data on the indicators of productivity, reproduction, and productive longevity of cows of the Ukrainian black speckled milky breed of the agricultural cooperative “Vostok” of the Kharkiv region. A multidimensional linear-threshold model was used to calculate genetic parameters (heritability coefficients and genetic correlations) and breeding values of breeding bulls. A probable phenotypic negative association was identified between calving difficulty and milk yield for 305 days (r= -0.2244±0.0266, P>0.999); an increase in calving difficulty by 1 point leads to a decrease in milk yield for 305 days of lactation by 1281.0 kg. Calculated estimates of genetic correlation indicate the presence of a fairly high relationship between milk yield for 305 days of lactation and the service period (over +0.5), a negative relationship between the service period and productive longevity (about -0.37), and a positive relationship between the service period and calving difficulty (about +0.26). This data indicates the presence of genetic antagonism between milk productivity and the level of reproduction of dairy cows, the negative impact of the extended service period on the length of stay of cows in the dairy herd, and the impact of calving difficulty on the deterioration of cow fertility. Estimates of the breeding value of breeding bulls by milk yield, service period, productive longevity, and calving difficulty were calculated. The results obtained indicate the expediency of including traits of reproduction, productive longevity, and difficulty of calving cows in the breeding index, which is used to evaluate and select bulls-producers of the Ukrainian black speckled milky breed
