Studies on heat stress in dairy cattle and pigs.
Resumen:
Under heat stress, production decreases, fertility decreases even more, and animals have a decreased chance of survival (St. Pierre et al., 2003). Heat stress can be mitigated in two ways: by environmental management, such as cooling devices or timing of reproduction West, 2003), or by genetic selection (Misztal et al., 2002). Heat stress in farm animals is likely to become a bigger problem due to global warming.
