Description

Cows of high yield potential require high daily dry matter intakes (DMI) to meet their increased energy demand. For this reason, DMI may be constrained in a pasture-based system. Daily milksolids yield and DMI of three strains of Holstein-Friesian dairy cows farmed at low and high feeding level during season 2002- 2003 are reported.
