OBJECTIVES: In health evaluations, physical activity (PA) and cardiorespiratory fitness (maximal oxygen uptake [VO2max]) are important variables. It is not always possible to assess both of them. If the association between self-reported PA and VO2max was strong, it would be possible to use the information …

There has been little research on rotational grazing of a combination of different forages by dairy cows and the potential effect on milk production and quality.
