This has been associated with an increased risk for sub-acute ruminal acidosis (SARA) and an increase in daily standing time due to periods of heat stress in July and August. While an increased risk for SARA has been documented in heat stressed cattle, the degree of change in dairy cow time budgets during periods of heat stress has been poorly documented.
This study aimed to determine the change in daily activity time budgets in a group of cows housed in a free stall barn with mattress beds, between filming sessions targeted at capturing different climatic conditions ...
