%X Subacute ruminal acidosis (SARA) is emerging disorder of dairy cattle operations. This study aimed to determine the relation between rumen pH and fecal scores of cows in early lactation period and to determine the suspected SARA status in dairy cows in this farm. For this propose, a total of 50 animals in early lactation period (0-70 days) were enrolled to the study.Rumen pH and fecal scores were determined by a portable pH meter and inspection method, respectivley. It was determined that there was a weak correlation between rumen pH and fecal scores (r = 0.50, p <0.05) in cows with SARA and 20/50 (40%) cows in early lactation period diagnosed SARA.In conclusion, correlations between rumen pH and fecal score were evaluated and it was determined that fecal scoring could be a weak parameter to SARA diagnosis
