Effect of pre and post-partum Alphatocopherol supplementation on body measurements and its relationship with body condition, milk yield, and udder health of Jersey crossbred cows at tropical lower Gangetic region

To find out the effect of Alphatocopherol supplementation an experiment was carried out on Jersey crossbred cows at lower Gangetic region. Three groups were taken viz. C (without any supplementation), T1 (Alphatocopherol supplemented @ 1g/cow/day 30 days before and after calving) and T2 (Alphatocopherol supplemented @ 1g/cow/day 30 days before and 60 days after calving) and the effect of Alphatocopherol supplementation was seen for body measurements. Statistically analyzed data revealed that THT (cm) (tail head thickness) was T1 and T2 had significantly (P
