For decades, research & conventional management have pointed to 60 days as the standard for dry period length. But @AnimNutr at @CANRatMSU sought to challenge this standard, armed w/ #JournalofDairyScience study findings (doi.org/10.3168/jds.2020-184…). dairyherd.com/news/dairy-pro…

Given similar management, are #Holstein or #Jersey cows more profitable on dairies in the north-central US? Learn more in a #JDSCommunications study from @MSUAnSci researchers led by @AnimNutr ➡️ doi.org/10.3168/jdsc.2023-03… #dairyscience

Well-written response from @GHGGuru following the NYTimes / Greenpeace attack piece. I'll save them the FOIA time and let them know that about half of my research is funded by the livestock sector, too. clear.ucdavis.edu/blog/full-…

Full disclosure: I work to reduce the footprint of animal agriculture

By Frank Mitloehner There’s a shocking revelation out there, and I am at the heart of it. Are you prepared for this? Animal scientists work with animal agriculture. That’s it. That’s the exposé, the...

(2/3) We had the "luck" of dealing with a gut disease outbreak during one of Steven Quanz's experiments. Although frustrating at the time, I think the case study we just published will help make progress on this #dairy cattle syndrome: appliedanimalscience.org/art…

Case Study: Combined risk factors and digestive disorders in mid-lactation Holstein cows

Digestive disorders can be a significant cause of disease in dairies and are frustrating because of their unpredictability. There is limited research on these conditions, and experimental exposure to...
