Abstract: This extensive literature review of bovine Somatotropin (bST) and related topics was carried out in conjunction with a USDA study requested by the Secretary of Agriculture. The study assesses the likely economic effects of the use of bST in dairy cattle. Information derived from this literature review, as well as direct and extensive communication with researchers at universities, in the industry, and in private companies was used to arrive at the underlying assumptions used in the analysis. The USDA study, bST and the Dairy Industry: A National, Regional, and Farm-level Analysis, is available from USDA-ENS Information, Room 237, 1301 New York Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20005-4788.
