title: Feed composition and left abomasal displacement in dairy cattle. A case-control study.
abstract: The present case-control study elucidates the significance of the crude fiber content in the ration for the development of left abomasal displacement. On the basis of approximate relative risk estimations a crude fiber content in the complete ration higher than 16 to 17% is recommended for the prevention of abomasal displacement.
