Abstract:
Temperature-humidity index (THI) is an indicator used to measure the degree of heat stress on the dairy animals. Heat stress is categorized into various THI values. A high THI value negatively affects cow comfort, dry matter intake and ultimately the dairy production and reproduction in India. Based on these values, mitigation practices can be followed for recovering the animal from heat stress.
