Abstract

High ambient temperature (HTa) is a major environmental challenge affecting the welfare, physiological stability, and productivity of dairy ruminants raised in tropical and subtropical regions. Heat stress caused by HTa compromises feed intake, acid-base balance, water metabolism, thermoregulation, and milk…
