Resumen
Descripción
The difficulty of detecting estrus is still a limiting factor for the reproductive efficiency of high-yielding dairy cows managed in confined systems. Estrus expression can be affected by environmental factors inherent in confinement systems, thus the identification of factors that affect estrus behavior may contribute to increasing the efficiency of estrus detection. The objectives of this study were to characterize the estrus behavior of highyielding dairy cows housed in a wind tunnel compost barn system and to verify the effects of environmental and physiological variables on estrus duration and intensity
