Forty pregnant F1 crossbred dairy cows (20 Friesian X Boran and 20 Simmental X Boran) were stratified in a 2x2 diet X work factorial experiment (not working-not supplemented, NWNS; not working-supplemented, NWS; working-not supplemented, WNS; and working-supplemented, WS). Working cows pulled sle...

Eighteen F1 crossbred dairy cows (Friesian X Boran and Simmental X Boran) were allocated to one of three diet groups (H: natural pasture hay; H + 3: natural pasture hay + 3 kg concentrate; and H + 5: natural pasture hay + 5 kg concentrate) using a stratified random sampling procedure, with parity...
