Abstract

The objective of this experiment was to determine the acid-base-balance and calcium metabolism in dairy cows feed on concentrates in Egypt. 40 late pregnant cows (more than 240d), having completed three or more lactations, with an expected calving date within the next three weeks were selected. The animals were randomly allocated to 2 groups which were offered the same diet first group consists of 20 native breed and second group consists of 20 Holstein cows.
