So how can you pass up a story with a headline like this? I couldn’t. This story from Feedstuffs describes the process of breeding cattle that tolerate heat better than current varieties by sweating a lot to keep cool. This is one of several adaptation methods cattle producers can use to respond to the warming climate. Our heat and humidity in the Southeast is already hard on cattle so any adaptation that can improve their comfort is a good thing and bodes well for the future of dairy and beef here.
