Animal Factors Condition Milk Performance and Quality of Grazing Dairy Cows
The base of this review is to consider the relevant role that animal factors (potential milk yield, body weight, body condition score, state of lactation, parity and fertility) play on milk performance (considering the energy balance and the rumen function across the full lactation curve of animals) and milk quality (milk protein content, milk fat content, milk lactose content, vitamins, minera...
متن کاملSward Factors Influence on Pasture Dry Matter Intake of Grazing Dairy Cows: A Review
Successful pasture-based milk production systems pivot on balancing dairy cows’ feed requirements with seasonal and annual fluctuations in pasture production. In order to maximise cow production from grazing dairy systems, it is necessary to reach an efficient utilization of grazed grass for feeding cows and the development of appropriate grazing management systems designed to maximize daily pa...
متن کاملEffect of Dietary and Animal Factors on Milk Fatty Acids Composition of Grazing Dairy Cows: A Review
In pasture-based milk production systems, using available farm resources in order to reduce feeding costs, the composition and functional properties of dairy cows’ milk are of considerable importance to the dairy farmer, manufacturer and consumer. Basically, there are three options for altering the composition and/or functional properties of milk: 1) cow nutrition and grazing management, 2) cow...
متن کاملEffect of concentrate type on rumen fermentation and milk production of cows at pasture
The experiment was conducted with 15 Autumn-calving Holstein±Friesian cows, three of which were ®tted with rumen cannula, that were allowed to access a perennial timothy and meadow fescue sward between 10 June and 12 August 1996. The control treatment (C) consisted of pasture alone. For the other two treatments, cows were fed 4 kg per day of either a concentrate supplement consisting of barley ...
متن کاملImpact of cow strain and concentrate supplementation on grazing behaviour, milk yield and metabolic state of dairy cows in an organic pasture-based feeding system
As ruminants are able to digest fibre efficiently and assuming that competition for feed v. food use would intensify in the future, cereals and other field crops should primarily be destined to cover the dietary needs of humans and monogastric animals such as poultry and pigs. Farming systems with a reduced or absent concentrate supplementation, as postulated by organic agriculture associations...
