The cause of Ketosis
A cow usually has only, a small
amount' of glucose (sugar) in her
blood stream. Thus a blood sugar
shortage ,occurs very quickly'
when the ration is deficient in
energy.' The cow , may try to
compensate by eating more of the
low energy ration. She will still
not meet her energy .require.

consume a limited voliime of
feed, Intake may also be. hamper-

Her only alternative is to use
