Effects of essential oils on the performance, health, and feeding behavior of growing cattle
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
. Essential oils are reported to alter ruminal fermentation (Hart et al., 2008) and animal performance (Calsamiglia et al., 2007). There is also evidence to suggest that EOs may manipulate feeding behavior in cattle (Tager and Krause, 2011). An experiment...
