El tiempo de alimentaci\u00f3n no se vio afectado. La reducci\u00f3n del tiempo de descanso se debi\u00f3 principalmente a una disminuci\u00f3n de la frecuencia de los per\u00edodos de descanso: la duraci\u00f3n media de los per\u00edodos tanto de descanso como de pie fue en realidad mayor en los pisos de concreto que en los de caucho. Por lo tanto, el efecto principal del piso m\u00e1s blando fue aumentar la disposici\u00f3n de las vacas a cambiar de postura, es decir, a acostarse y levantarse. Una vez que las vacas estaban acostadas o de pie, continuaban acostadas o de pie durante un per\u00edodo de tiempo m\u00e1s corto en el piso m\u00e1s blando. Los resultados actuales confirman los de Haley et al. (2001), quienes encontraron un patr\u00f3n similar durante un per\u00edodo de tiempo m\u00e1s corto. Los resultados actuales sugieren que el ganado no se adapt\u00f3 a los pisos m\u00e1s duros, al menos durante las primeras 16 semanas de lactancia. Estos resultados confirman los hallazgos para los establos libres, en los que se ha demostrado que los pisos blandos aumentan el tiempo de reposo y la aceptabilidad del establo (Tucker et al., 2003; Wagner-Storch et al., 2003; Fulwider y Palmer 2004).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.animat.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/shearer.pdf\">Art\u00edculo completo<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5d2ce35 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"5d2ce35\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-76ce7a1 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"76ce7a1\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-18d08db e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"18d08db\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-df59496 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"df59496\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Explore nuestro folleto<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-417cf10 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"417cf10\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dpopup%3Aopen%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6IjEwOTkiLCJ0b2dnbGUiOmZhbHNlfQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Solicitar una copia<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-73ed2dd e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"73ed2dd\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2ffa0c3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2ffa0c3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Empieza hoy mismo<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cfbda52 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"cfbda52\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/www.animat.ca\/es_mx\/contact\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Cont\u00e1ctenos<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cOur results showed that cows kept in tie stalls with hard concrete floors spend more time per day standing without feeding and tended to spend less time lying.

Once the cows were lying down or standing, they continued to lie or stand for a shorter period of time on the softer flooring. The current results confirm those of Haley et al. (2001), who found a similar pattern over a shorter period of time. The present results suggest that cattle did not adapt to the harder floors, at least over the first 16 wk of lactation. These results confirm findings for free stalls, in which soft stall floors have been shown to increase lying time and stall acceptability (Tucker et al., 2003; Wagner-Storch et al., 2003; Fulwider and Palmer 2004).\u201d","og_url":"https:\/\/www.animat.ca\/es_mx\/effect-of-softer-flooring-in-tie-stalls-on-resting-behaviour-leg-injuries-of-lactating-cows\/","og_site_name":"Animat","article_published_time":"2025-07-18T16:02:21+00:00","article_modified_time":"2025-07-18T16:59:38+00:00","og_image":[{"width":2048,"height":1536,"url":"https:\/\/www.animat.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Chili-20-1-2048x1536-1.jpg","type":"image\/jpeg"}],"author":"Sabrina","twitter_card":"summary_large_image","twitter_misc":{"Written by":"Sabrina","Est. reading time":"2 minutos"},"schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Article","@id":"https:\/\/www.animat.ca\/effect-of-softer-flooring-in-tie-stalls-on-resting-behaviour-leg-injuries-of-lactating-cows\/#article","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.animat.ca\/effect-of-softer-flooring-in-tie-stalls-on-resting-behaviour-leg-injuries-of-lactating-cows\/"},"author":{"name":"Sabrina","@id":"https:\/\/www.animat.ca\/#\/schema\/person\/b04d1463e68fa83679fbfea587470f37"},"headline":"Effect of Softer Flooring in Tie Stalls on Resting Behaviour &#038;
