Microplastics contamination in dairy cows' total mixed ration
, 2023 The demand for milk and meat is continuously increasing with the growth of world population, that is expected to reach about 9.7 billion by 2050. Ruminants are one of the main sources of these animal products, thus boosting their intensive livestock. However, ruminants are exposed to a huge number of contaminants, with potential risks for humans. Among

Pasture Feeding Changes the Bovine Rumen and Milk Metabolome
Metabolites, 2018 The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of two pasture feeding systems—perennial ryegrass (GRS) and perennial ryegrass and white clover (CLV)—and an indoor total mixed ration (TMR) system on the (a) rumen microbiome; (b) rumen fluid and milk

The Economics of Total Mixed Ration Systems in Australia
, 2022 An increasing proportion of dairy farmers in Australia are looking to transition from pasture-based systems (PB) to confinement, zero-grazing or Total Mixed Ration systems (TMR) in response to climatic pressures, market volatility or growth opportunities.
