Lactation modeling and the effects of rotational crossbreeding on milk production traits and milk-spectra-predicted enteric methane emissions

ABSTRACT: Rotational crossbreeding has not been widely studied in relation to the enteric methane emissions of dairy cows, nor has the variation in emissions during lactation been modeled. Milk infrared spectra could be used to predict proxies of methane emissions in dairy cows. Therefore, the objec...
