TL;DR: In this paper , the influence of diet on intake, methane (CH4) emissions and retention of nitrogen (N) was investigated over a 5-year period using pregnant cows, yearling calves and 2-year-old heifers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Substitution of wheat straw with sugarcane bagasse in low-forage diets fed to mid-lactation dairy cows: Milk production, digestibility, and chewing behavior.
TL;DR: It is concluded that SB can be used as a fiber source in diets fed to dairy cows in mid-lactation; however, the decrease in total-tract digestibility of diets may decrease lactational performance when fed to high-producing dairy cows.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climate change impacts on corn heat unit for the Canadian Prairie provinces
Journal ArticleDOI
Technical note: validation of the GreenFeed system for measuring enteric gas emissions from cattle.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared emission rates of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) measured by a commercially available GreenFeed (GF) system with those from a mass flow controller (MFC) that released known quantities of gas over time (i.e., emission rate) and a respiration chamber (RC).
