Effect of a feed supplementation during the mid-lactating period on body condition, milk yield, metabolic profile and pregnancy rate of grazing dual-purpose cows in the Mexican humid tropic

Forty-eight grazing mid-lactating anoestrous dual-purpose cows were used to determine the effect of feed supplementation (FS) on body condition score (BCS), milk yield, metabolic profile and pregnancy rate in the dry (DS, n= 24) and rainy (RS, n= 24) seasons in Mexico. Half of the cows received FS w...
