Cows feel the heat more than we realise.
Even at 25C, they can begin to feel uncomfortable. The immediate impact of heat stress on cows is a substantial decrease in feed intake resulting in reduced milk production as the cows body temperature increases.
Long term heat stress results in reduced in-calf rates, low milk production, low protein and fat test results, liveweight loss and other cow health problems that can negatively impact farm income.
Heat stress can be effectively managed with a proactive whole-of-year approach including changes to on-farm infrastructure, animal nutrition, and breeding programs.
In the Cools Cows discussion workshop, we will discuss strategies to help you minimise the impact of heat stress on your cows, optimise milk yield, and ensure the overall well-being of your herd.
