The objective of this experiment was to investigate the effects of an automatic brush on behavior and milk yield of dairy cows. In the study, 30 first parity dairy cows were assigned to one of the two groups for four weeks, in the absence of a brush (control) or in the presence of an automatic brush (experimental). Otomatik f�r�alar�n sa�mal ineklerin davran��lar� ve s�t verimi �zerine etkilerini ara�t�rmak amac�yla y�r�t�len bu �al��mada toplam 30 ba� inek kullan�lm��t�r. T�m� 1. laktasyonda olan inekler s�t verimi ve laktasyondaki g�n say�s�na bak�larak iki gruba ayr�lm�� ve gruplardan birine otomatik f�r�adan yararlanma olana�� tan�nm��t�r.
