Manitoba cattle endure winter stress from cold and snow. Sheltered cattle with good body fat and extra energy intake better withstand prolonged cold. An acclimatization process raises energy needs, with increased feed intake and thicker hair, while digestibility drops. An adjusted energy diet improves calving outcomes and cycling compared with controls.
