Impacts of feeding a flax-seed based feed supplement on productive and reproductive performance of early lactation multiparous Holstein cows

2019-05-01

Abstract excerpt

Research conducted over the past 50 years has shown that the general health of dairy cows (i.e., immunity and uterine health) as well as pregnancy rates (i.e., fertilization and embryo development) can be improved through enhanced post-ruminal delivery, and absorption, of poly unsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), especially omega-3 (n-3) PUFA. Since flax-seed contains very high concentrations of n-3 PUFA relative to ot...
