Abstract

Transitions between production phases are critical periods marked by physiologic, nutritional, and environmental challenges. These challenges increase the risk of diseases that significantly affect welfare, animal performance, and farm efficiency. This article presents an overview of the existing understanding of diseases linked to transitional phases, including their associated risk factors and preventive measures. Additionally, it examines future research directions in the context of diagnostic tools, microbiota modulation, and genetic selection for disease resilience. By focusing on these areas, the article aims to promote health and welfare while fostering efficient and sustainable cattle production systems.
