However, still the dairy farmers face numerous complications during the transition period of their animals. Hence, this review has focused on the most recent developments on understanding and overcoming the challenges of transition period of dairy cows. The recent developments are discussed under two major themes; developments in understanding the physiological changes occur during transition stage of dairy cows and molecular aspects of transition stage. As a conclusion, a holistic approach combining molecular, nutritional and management practices is recommended to overcome the problems faced during transition stage.
