Effects of heat stress on metabolism, digestibility, and rumen epithelial characteristics in growing Holstein calves

TL;DR: It is confirmed that short-term HS in the current study had no effect on diet digestibility, rumen morphology, or VFA transporters genes, and HS-induced decrease in DMI is in large part responsible for gross changes in BW in growing calves (albeit tissue composition of growth is not unknown).

Effect of eucalyptus (Camaldulensis) leaf meal powder on rumen fermentation characteristics in cattle fed on rice straw

TL;DR: Three, Holstein Friesian, non-lactation crossbred dairy cows were used to evaluate the effect of Eucalyptus (Camaldulensis) leaf meal powder (EUCAP) supplementation on feed intake, digestibility and rumen fermentation and revealed that voluntary feed intake was significantly decreased when EUCAP was supplemented at 200 g/hd/d.

Dietary N,N-dimethylglycine supplementation improves nutrient digestibility and attenuates pulmonary hypertension syndrome in broilers

TL;DR: Beneficial effects of DMG on digestibility of non-fat fractions, on fat metabolism and on progression towards broiler ascites syndrome are demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Soil intake of lactating dairy cows in intensive strip grazing systems

TL;DR: A dietary supplement and a low grazing pressure, that is, high pasture allowance increasing post-grazing sward height, would efficiently limit the risk for high level of soil intake, especially when grazing conditions are difficult.

Effectiveness of potassium carbonate sesquihydrate to increase dietary cation-anion difference in early lactation cows.

TL;DR: Milk fat of cows fed higher dietary K had a lower concentration of trans fatty acids, suggesting a role for potassium carbonate sesquihydrate in the rumen in the biohydrogenation processes converting linoleic to stearic acid.
