Article Synopsis
- The research examines how different cattle production systems (traditional, silvopastoral, integrated) affect the thermal comfort and productivity of Nellore cattle in the Lower Amazon mesoregion of Brazil.
- The study involved 30 healthy male cattle divided into three groups based on the type of production system, with various climate and physiological data collected to assess thermal comfort during specific times.
- Results indicated that the silvopastoral system provided the best thermal conditions for the cattle, with significantly lower temperature averages compared to the traditional and integrated systems.
