From one site: We do not fully understand the causes of ovarian cysts, which means that there are no specific prevention regimes. However energy deficiency is a major factor, and reducing the depth and length of the period of negative energy balance after calving, will significantly reduce the incidence of cystic ovaries
This can be achieved by:
Ensuring cows calve with a condition score between 2 and 3
Correct formulation of the ration
Maximising dry matter intake
Minimising metabolic disease
Maximising the care of the cow at and just after calving
