*3.3. Overall Comparison*

Overall, all the three herds were same in terms of resource-based indicators. A slight difference among the three herds was present in terms of animal-based indicators. The herd at CU1 (43.64%) showed aggression and some animals (34.78%) were observed showing signs of ophthalmic discharge. The second herd showed an aggression of 37.75%, which was comparatively lower than that observed in the other two herds, but no diseased animal was found. The herd at CU3 showed the highest aggression (66.59%), but no animal was diseased. Comparing the results obtained for all the three groups, we assumed the herd at CU2 was at maximum welfare, followed by CU3 and CU1.
