Abstract:
The objective of the present trial was to assess a galactogogue plant extract on low producing cows. Twelve 450 kg of body weight multiparous Holstein cows in middle lactation with 16 L day-1 of milk yield were used for that purpose, half received 200 mg day-1 of the extract and the rest were used as control. Data showed an increase in milk production with the plant extract (p<0.05) however nutrient daily production was slightly reduced (p<0.05).
