1 Effect of a single injection of cabergoline at dry off on udder characteristics in high- yielding dairy cows  S. Bertulat, N. Isaka, A. de Prado, A. Lopez, T. Hetreau, W.

2 Figure 1 Daily udder pressure (LSM ± SE; kg) before (i.e., after milking) and after dry off in cabergoline- (solid line) and placebo-treated (dotted line) cows considering parity (primiparous n = 111; multiparous n = 123).

3 Figure 2 Distribution of udder-firmness scores (i.e., 0 to 3; flabby to very firm) by percentage after dry off in cows treated with cabergoline (CAB; n = 115) and placebo (PLA; n = 119). An asterisk (*) represents udder firmness values differ between treatment groups within days (P < 0.05).

4 Figure 3 Total teat distance (i.e., sum of teat distances; LSM ± SE; cm) before and after dry off in cabergoline- (solid line; n = 115) and placebo-treated (dotted line; n = 119) cows. An asterisk (*) represents a difference within days between groups for P < 0.05; a pound sign (#) represents a difference within days between groups for P < 0.01.
