Effect of Hay to Grain Ratio on Utilization of Metabolizable Energy for Milk Production by Dairy Cows

the effects of high non fibrous carbohydrates diet on milk production, inflammation and molecular mechanism of innate immunity in lactating dairy cows

پژوهش حاضر با هدف بررسی اثر جیره حاوی کربوهیدراتهای غیرالیافی زیاد و بروز التهاب در گاوهای شیرده در دو آزمایش جداگانه انجام شد. در آزمایش اول 20 رأس گاو مبتلا به ورم پستان از دو گروه کم تولید و پرتولید (هر کدام 10 رأس) و 20 رأس گاو سالم از دو گروه کم تولید و پرتولید (هر کدام 10 رأس) انتخاب شدند. همه گاوها در دوره دوم و یا سوم شیردهی و در روزهای 80-120 پس از زایش بودند. میانگین تولید شیر در گروه...

Effects of substituting sorghum grain for barley on milk yield and composition of dairy cows

Effect of Steam Heating Alfalfa Hay on Utilization by Lactating Dairy Cows

Alfalfa hay was steam heated for an average of 47 min at 100 to 110°C; net ruminal protein escape (total escape minus ADIN x 6.25), estimated in vitro, was 50% versus 29% for control hay. Heating increased ADIN content from 4.6 to 15.3% of total N and increased NDF from 43 to 53% of DM. In trial 1, 14 cows averaging 81 DIM and 30 kg/d of milk were fed, in a switchback design, diets containing 1...

Effect of dietary N-carbamoylglutamate on milk production and nitrogen utilization in high-yielding dairy cows.

The objective of the current study was to investigate the effect of N-carbamoylglutamate (NCG) supplementation on milk production and nitrogen (N) utilization in Chinese Holstein dairy cows. Sixty multiparous cows (78±17.3 d in milk, 635±61.00kg of body weight, and 41.9±7.9kg/d milk yield; mean ± SD) were blocked by parity, days in milk, and milk yield and randomly allocated to 1 of 4 groups, e...

Effect of dietary crude protein concentration on milk production and nitrogen utilization in lactating dairy cows.

Forty lactating Holstein cows, including 10 with ruminal cannulas, were blocked by days in milk into 8 groups and then randomly assigned to 1 of 8 incomplete 5 x 5 Latin squares to assess the effects of 5 levels of dietary crude protein (CP) on milk production and N use. Diets contained 25% alfalfa silage, 25% corn silage, and 50% concentrate, on a dry matter (DM) basis. Rolled high-moisture sh...
