Conclusion:
The combination of heat and humidity can overwhelm the cow’s adaptive responses, especially when milk yield is
high, resulting in a decrease in dry matter intake, milk yield and reproductive success. Provimi has developed I.C.E.™
technology (patent pending) that helps the animals to stay hydrated. University research and field trials have
shown that the physiological effect of I.C.E.™ (lower core body temperature) mitigates effects of heat stress on
acidosis, milk quality and pregnancy rate.
