1 Swedish Sire Evaluation of Hoof Diseases Based on Hoof Trimming Records Leg and hoof disorders cause lameness % of culled cows Swedish Red5.5 Holstein6.8 Recruitment costs increase Animal welfare – Increased suffering of the cow

2 Means of improvement SHORT TERM hoof trimming metabolic balance environmental improvements LONG TERM Genetics conformation hoof diseases

3 Hoof Trimming Recording Scheme 2003 an enhanced system Training of hoof trimmers Recording of findings by hoof trimmers in field A clean copy scanned Stored in the cow database

4

5 Dermatitis (digital or interdigital)

6 Heel horn erosion

7 Sole haemorrhage (sole or white line haemorrhage)

8 Sole ulcer (ulceration of sole or white line area)

9 Percent of hoof lesions recorded by Swedish hoof trimmers Number of records 307,543 Dermatitis7.3 Heel horn erosion21.1 Sole haemorrhage26,0 Sole ulcer4,5

10 The goal of present study to see if the hoof trimming records were suitable for the genetic evaluation of sires for hoof diseases

11 Number of 1st lactation cows and sires included in the analysis SRBHol Sires1,103 1,852 >49 dau.5292 Cows33,004 37,541

12 Standard deviation of EBVs for sires with > 49 daughters SRBHol Dermatitis Heel horn Sole haem Sole ulcer4.03.9

13 Correlation between EBVs between divided daughter groups SRBHol # of sires4575 Dermatitis Heel horn Sole haem Sole ulcer

14 SUMMARY The quality of hoof trimming records is very god Genetic evaluation of sires for hoof diseases is possible Correlation with leg and feet conformation seems to be low Economic value need to be assessed

15 SUMMARY Genetic analysis is recommended in order to utilize data more efficient The value as early predictors need to analyzed Finally Many thanks to all hoof trimmers and hoof specialists involved in the project
