Associations between body temperature and feed efficiency traits in lactating Holstein cows
Differences in feed efficiency among dairy cows could be partially explained by changes in body temperature due to the heat increment. This heat represents chemical energy lost, and theoretically, it should be lower in more efficient cows. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations be...
