Determining the economic value of daily dry matter intake and associated methane emissions in dairy cattle
Feed represents a substantial proportion of production costs in the dairy industry and is a useful target for improving overall system efficiency and sustainability. The objective of this study was to develop methodology to estimate the economic value for a feed efficiency trait and the associated m...
