The objective of this study was to study the influence of the periods of the year and reproductive phases on body temperature, pregnancy and milk components of cows of the Black and White Dutch breed. Cows (n = 24) of the Black and White Dutch breed aged 5.0 ± 1.3 years were used in the reproductive stages: 1 (1-95 days of pregnancy); 2 (96-190 days of pregnancy); 3 (191-285 days of pregnancy); 4 (puerperium) and 5 (non-pregnant cows), kept on pasture of Urochloa decumbens, corn silage, mineral mixture and water at will. The experiment period was 365 days, dry period (April to September) and rainy (October to March). Infrared thermography of body areas was performed every 28 ± 5 days, followed by rectal thermometry, ultrasonography for the diagnosis of pregnancy, measurement of climatic parameters, CMT examination and milk collection to study its composition. Statistical analysis was performed using the Tukey test at the significance level of 5% and in the Leeds stadium comparison. For temperatures obtained by thermograms there were differences (P <0.05) between periods of the year and reproductive phases. For the flank, lateral udder and perineal temperatures there were differences (P <0.05) between periods of the year. The udder, perineum and rectal temperatures differed for reproductive phases (P <0.05). There were significant correlations (P <0.01) between: reproductive phase with rectal temperature, ocular globe, muzzle, flank and perineum. The CMT correlated with the temperature of the different reproductive phases presented significant differences (P <0.05) in all the reproductive phases during the rainy season, there were positive correlations (P <0.01) between CMT and CCS. It was concluded that the areas of the body examined by thermographic images presented different temperatures, showing physiological variations that aid in the clinical evaluation of each of the examined areas. Infrared thermography images have also been shown to detect changes in skin surface temperature in response to varying degrees of severity of mammary gland infection, as CMT suggests. The periods of the year and reproductive phases influenced the temperature of areas of the body of milk cows. The image processing was practical, and routine thermography examination was recommended as a complement to the clinical examination.
