Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how different concentrations of diluted seawater (SW) in drinking water affect the health and habits of dairy goats in tropical regions, where saline intrusion is a growing concern due to climate change.
- Twenty dairy goats were divided into four groups and were given varying levels of saline water over a period of 49 days, with daily measurements of food and water intake and blood samples taken.
- Results showed that while dry matter intake wasn't affected, higher salinity significantly impacted water consumption and caused changes in urinary excretion and physiological responses, indicating that goats can adapt to low and moderate salinity but struggle more with high salinity levels.
