National audienceSeveral experiments were conducted for evaluating the effects of once daily milking (ODM) in Lacaune dairy ewes throughout the milking period. Milk production and composition, udder health, daily feed intake and energy metabolism were individually monitored. The effects of adopting ODM at the farm and the production region levels were also modelled. Individual milk yield was 14% lower either in adult or primiparous ewes. Milk fat and protein contents were lower and higher, respectively, when ewes were fed ad libitum; however, these parameters were almost not modified when diets were adjusted to the actual milk yield. Dry matter intake was not affected by ODM, which led to a marked positive energy balance in ODM ewes. The la...
