In one minute: During heat stress, PlusBreathe© increases feed intake by 10% | PlusVet Animal Health
In hot environments, animals are prone to change their feeding patterns: the processes of digestion and nutrient absorption produce metabolic heat and, to control body temperature, animals limit feed consumption.
The magnitude of the reduction will depend on the species and the environmental temperature: for example, at 30ºC, Holstein cows eat 20% less; poultry 5% less; and fattening pigs consume 25 to 40% less, depending on their body weight.
