  1. 1. Milk production, fluid balance and temperature regulation in lactating camels (Camelus dromedarius)

    Författare :Tafesse Bekele; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The aims of this thesis were to identify good milking and watering routines for camels, and to better understand the physiological mechanisms that enable camels to produce milk during long periods of water deprivation. Milk production was increased by changing the number of milkings from one to four times per day in an on-farm study. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : In the drylands of the Horn of Africa, camels are fundamental for food and nutritional security due to their ability to produce milk despite limited access to feed and water. Subclinical mastitis (SCM) is common in the region and has a negative impact on food security and household income. LÄS MER
