Abstract

Just like every other agricultural sub-sector, the dairy industry is prone to the impacts of climate change. Climate change forces water and land to become more limited for fodder production and causes temperatures rises, requiring changes to forage feeding systems. Also, increase in temperatures requires changes to forage feeding systems. Climate change is having substantial effects on the environment and other natural resources upon which the livestock sub-sector depends [1].
