The use of tritiated water to estimate the kinetics of body water in lactating Borana cows under ranch condition
Two of the major problems of cattle production in the semi-arid regions are the effect of water deprivation and low nutrient intake during the dry season. The presence of adequate water in body tissues is an essential pre-requisite for normal maintenance of life, and water is a fundamental constitue...
