the study was carried out for a period of 150 days on 120 holstein friesian crossbred dairy cows between mid to late lactation to quantify the influence of body condition score (bcs) on yield and composition of milk. total 12 dairy farms having same housing systems and holding at least 20 crossbred dairy cows per farm between mid to late lactation were selected for this study purposes. bcs of i...

the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of replacing progesterone injections by progesterone vaginal inserts on productive and reproductive parameters of lactating cows with reproductive problems after prolonged periods of heat stress. fifteen holstein cows were randomly assigned to one of three treatments: 1) treated with two progesterone vaginal inserts (p4-ins); 2) treated with prog...

twenty eight lactating buffaloes were used in a completely randomized design with 2×2 factorial arrangement of four experimental diets including low protein–low energy (lp-le), low protein–high energy (lp-he), high protein–low energy (hp-le) and high protein–high energy (hp-he). results showed that the hp-he diet recorded the highest digestibility coefficients of cp, ee, nfe, nutritive values, ...
