| Sumario: | The Temperature and Humidity Index (ITH) is used to assess the heat stress conditions for livestock. ITH values equal to or greater than 72 are associated with heat stress conditions for dairy cattle. In this paper we analyzed the behavior of ITH in Rafaela (Santa Fe), Marcos Juárez (Córdoba), Concepción del Uruguay (Entre Ríos) and Trenque Lauquen (Buenos Aires), during the period 1/11/2012 to 31/12/ 2020 using hourly data. Trenque Lauquen is less stressful for dairy cattle than Rafaela, where the risk of heat stress was high, especially between December and February. |
