Popis: This experiment was performed to examine the influences of high ambient temperature on milk production, nutrient digestibility, energy and protein sufficiency ratio, and plasma metabolites concentration in lactating cows. In a 2×2 crossover design, four multiparous lactating Holstein cows were maintained in a chamber under treatment of constant moderate (18°C) ambient temperature (MT) or high (28°C) ambient temperatures (HT). The DMI and milk protein yield were significantly lower in HT (p
