The effects of stocking rate, residual sward height, and forage supplementation on forage production, feeding strategies, and productivity of milking dairy cows
The intensification process in Uruguayan dairies over the last 30 years has involved increases in stocking rate (SR) and individual milk production. This research aimed to compare biophysical indicators along with the associated feeding strategies for Holstein–Jersey crossbred dairy cow systems. The...
