Fig. 11From: Model-based exploration of the impact of glucose metabolism on the estrous cycle dynamics in dairy cowsSimulated change in body fat as an indicator of energy balance in lactating dairy cows for different values of glucose content in the DMI. When c0=0.2, energy balance is negative throughout the lactation period (a). When c0=0.225 or higher, the period of negative energy balance becomes shorter (b,c). When c0=0.3, energy balance is positive throughout the lactation period (d)Back to article page
