Description
Summary:An abstract of an article by Canozzi et al on performing a systematic review and meta-analysis to quantify the effects of the TDN and CP in the diet of pregnant beef cows on fetal weight and birth weight of calves is presented. The study demonstrates that FW4, FW8, and BiW were reduced when CP was 19 to 25% and TDN was 30% above of cows' requirements as published by the NRC (1996).
