Balancing Trade-Offs in Milk Production by Making Use of Animal Individual Energy Balancing
Traditionally, the energy supply of dairy cows is based on the average performance of the herd. Because this contradicts the great variation in requirements between individual animals, the objective of the present study was to quantify both the extent and consequences of variation in the relevant su...
