Well controlled, clean environment has general, positive effect on farm animals well-being, that promotes higher productivity, in terms of beneficial effects on the quality of fleece and skin, high quality of milk and meat and reduced risk of foodborne zoonotic diseases. Numerous point scales have been developed to assess the cleanliness of individual animals and within animal herds. In most cases, they may differ in the accuracy.
