The effect of environmental temperature on average daily gain in preweaned calves: A randomized controlled trial and Bayesian analysis

ABSTRACT: Neonatal calves are relatively susceptible to heat loss, and previous research suggests that reduced environmental temperatures are associated with reduced average daily gain (ADG) during the preweaning phase. Current methods of mitigating negative effects of colder environmental condition...
