Effectiveness of precision feeding in reducing N excretion in dairy cattle
(Elsevier, 2023-07-01)
Two periods enrolling 56 (milk yield 36.2 ± 7.91 kg/d) and 58 (milk yield 32.4 ± 4.99 kg/d) grouped-fed dairy cows were performed to evaluate nutrient adjustment and N emissions of a precision feeding ...
