(226 Mcal mobilized x .8)/e Mcal feed NEm shorted daily = 60 days. These scenarios demonstrate the importance of having cows in good body condition (BCS 6, plus or minus) when winter begins so body energy reserves are available in times of critical need without resulting in BCS dropping below 5. d Feeding 1 lb.
