Effect of forage type on swallowed bolus mass and a method for counting swallows in dairy cattle
: Dry matter intake (DMI) is a primary determinant of milk production in grazing dairy cows and an ability to measure the DMI of individual cows would allow herd managers to formulate supplementary rations that consider the amount of nutrients ingested ...
