Dairy cow feeding space requirements assessed in a Y-maze choice test.
The effect of proximity to a dominant cow on a low-ranking cow's willingness to feed was assessed using choice tests. The main aim of the experiment was to determine the feeding space allowance at which the majority of subordinate cows would choose to feed on high-palatability food (HPF) next to a dominant cow rather than feeding alone on low-palatability food (LPF). Thirty Holstein-Friesian co...
متن کاملStudy on Intelligent Multi-concentrates Feeding System for Dairy Cow
To implement precision feeding for dairy cow, an intelligent multiconcentrates feeding system was developed. The system consists of two parts, one is precision ingredients control subsystem, the other is multi-concentrates discharge subsystem. The former controls the latter with 4 stepper motors. The precision ingredients control subsystem was designed based on Samsung S3C2440 ARM9 microprocess...
متن کاملAtypical Actinobacillosis in a Dairy Cow
Actinobacillosis is an infectious, chronic, generally non-fatal disease caused by Actinobacillus lignieresii. The etiologic agent is a part of the oral flora and causes pyogranulomatous lesions of the soft tissues. A 5-year old, approximately 500 kg cross-breed Holstein cow was presented for the treatment of a large, ulcerated and hemorrhagic mass at the left side of the neck in vicinity of the...
متن کاملChoice of attractive conditions by beef cattle in a Y-maze just after release from restraint.
To provide useful information on how to moderate posthandling stress, the attractiveness of different conditions to beef cattle just after release from restraint was determined. Angus heifers were individually allowed to enter a choice area after 2 min of restraint in a squeeze chute and to choose between 2 pens. After the heifer had chosen a pen, it could freely access both test pens and the c...
متن کاملReplacing grass silage with pea - barley intercrop silage in the feeding of the dairy cow
The effect of replacing wilted grass silage (GS) with pea-barley intercrop silage (PBS) on feed intake, diet digestibility and milk production was studied with 8 multiparous Ayrshire-cows in a replicated 4 × 4 Latin square experiment. Proportion of PBS was 0 (PBS0), 33 (PBS33), 67 (PBS67) or 100 (PBS100) % of silage dry matter (DM). The DM content was 559 and 255 g kg-1 for GS and PBS. Crude pr...
