feed formulation strategies to combat heat stress in lactating cows
Feed formulation strategies play a critical role in mitigating heat stress in transition dairy cows, as demonstrated by an August 2023 trial in the Czech Republic where the temperature-humidity index (THI) reached 82. During this period of severe heat, researchers evaluated the effects of a targeted nutritional approach including rumen-specific live yeast, antioxidants rich in enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD), and organic selenium supplementati…
The comfort level of cows during gestation directly influences the body mass of calves at birth and their subsequent development. Prenatal heat stress is a factor that can compromise both the viability and the productive potential of calves. What does thermal comfort mean for cows? For cows, the thermal comfort zone corresponds to a THI (Temperature-Humidity Index […]
