Thank for this interesting article.
It would be of my interest to ask whether you had the chance to look at the changes in the rumen pH as cows in heat. Graph 4 is great in terms of showing the increase in activity and drop in feed intake but would have been great if accompanied with data from rumen boluses on the pH.
We believe that in the UK, as a country that the cows do not commonly get into heat stress, managing the rumen pH by using rumen Boluses is the key factor to improve dairy cow productivity, reproductivity and general well being.
