“The best time to strategize about heat stress mitigation is early spring when there is still some frost on the ground in the mornings. Or better yet . . . planning for next summer’s heat abatement plan could be done in the previous fall when the shortcomings of the current cooling strategies are fresh on everyone’s mind. However, that doesn’t mean that when we are in the thick of the summer stress we can’t implement new ideas. The goal during these times may be attempting to maintain feed intake during heat stress.”
