dc.description.abstractThis study, as a model for the farms in Turkey implementing professional herd management protocols, was conducted to\rexamine a variety of factors in relation to the prevalence of failure of passive transfer (FPT) and the passive transfer (PT) in dairy farms\rin Ankara. A total of 400 calves and 363 cows from 9 different farms practicing professional herd management systems and employ\rfull-time veterinarians were included in the study. Following the birth of the calf, colostrum was taken from cows, blood samples were\rtaken from calves at 24–48 h of age and analysed for IgG using ELISA. FPT was determined in 69 (17.25%) of 400 calves examined and\r44 (12.12%) of 363 cows produced insufficient quality colostrum (IgG concentration ? 50 mg/mL). The average blood IgG concentration\rof calves was 14.16 mg/mL, and the average colostrum IgG concentration was 90.41 mg/mL. When various data related to FPT are\revaluated, the risk of FPT increases 15.4 times in calves fed with insufficient quality colostrum, and the risk of overcoming diseases\rin calves with FPT increases 1.6 times until weaning. In conclusion, the FPT rate was around 20% in dairy farms in Ankara, where\radvanced herd management techniques were practiced and still pose a serious risk.
