DairyFeedbase - Feeding Cool Cows
The Cool Cows project aims to assess the cost of hot weather in terms of individual cow milk production and then devise on-farm nutritional management strategies for implementation at the herd level to minimise the impact of heat events on dairy farm productivity. As part of that objective the Cool Cows team is also looking to understand the impact of hot weather at the plant level and how to use nutrition in conjunction with genomic selection to boost heat tolerance and profitability.
