Design proposal for milk centre with mechanical cooling for dairy cattle in tropical climate
The increase of milk consumption in south East Asia requires an increase in milk production. Cows suffering from heat stress are a big problem for milk producers in these hot and humid countries. The consequences of heat stress for cows are declines in food consumption which leads to declines in...
