Nutritional sub-fertility in the dairy cow: towards improved reproductive management through a better biological understanding

Animal, 2010
There has been a significant decline in the reproductive performance of dairy cattle in recent decades. Cows, take longer time to return to the oestrus after calving, have poorer conception rates, and show fewer signs of oestrus.
