Potential of fresh chopped matarraton leaves as an animal feed supplement
It has been shown that freshly chopped matarratón leaf meal has a positive influence on bovine reproduction. Multiple observations have demonstrated that supplementation with this plant protein effectively combats anestrus; for example, lack of estrus has been reported as the cause in rates ranging from 20.71% to 100%. Additionally, freshly chopped matarratón leaf meal increases the average number of calvings in cows with problems other than anestrus, with reported increases of up to 100%.
