Dear All,
Great informative article regarding feeding dairy cows, the author has taken efforts to even convey the nuances of dairy herd feeding in a simplified way.
I would like to add my comment as TMR at larger herds can not only be restricted two different milking cow ration rather it might even split up to three or four different rations depends on the number of cows at different stages of lactation.
Temperature and Humidity combinedly called as THI as an index and this shall be a great determinant in terms of adjusting the feeding interms of no of meals, timing, and addition of sugar beet pulp etc.,
Thanks,
