Cows were classified according to dry periods into three categories, which were less than 45, 45-55, and more than 55 days. The data was analyzed using SPSS26 software. The results showed a highly significant effect of the length of the dry period on all milk production indicators studied. The Lactation curve was also affected by the Dry Period Length. Shortening the Dry Period Length led to a decrease in milk production quantities and continuity of production. Cows with a short dry period of less than 45 days reached peak production early, compared to cows with a period of 45-55 days that continued longer to maintain high production in subsequent lactation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><strong>Key words:<\/strong> Dry Period, milk production, the Lactation curve for milk, cows. <\/span><br \/><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">\u00a0Full paper in Arabic: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/wp-content\/uploads\/v12n6p20.pdf\">PDF<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mahmoud Ibrahim Al-Mohamed (1)* (1).
