Global warming and rising air temperatures are expected to directly affect sum mer milk production in dairy cows across Europe, particularly in regions with high dairy cattle concentrations. The impact on milk production may vary widely, as cows respond differently to environmental changes. They adapt more easily to favorable conditions but struggle with sudden stressors. This paper reviews the climatic influences on milk production and cow behavior under heat stress, cate gorizing impacts into indirect long-term effects and direct short-term effects. Eco nomic losses in milk production can be assessed using the milk prediction decline (MPD) feature, demonstrated for four cow breeds in three districts of Serbia.
