Effect of Lint on Whole Cottonseed Passage and Digestibility and Diet Choice on Intake of Whole Cottonseed by Holstein Cows

Digestibility and effects of whole cottonseed fed to lactating cows.

Four lactating Holstein cows producing about 21 kg milk/day were fed complete rations containing 0, 5, 15, and 25% whole cottonseed in a 4 X 4 Latin square design. Diets were fed ad libitum. Periods were 21 days in length with total collections of feces and urine during the last 7 days of each period. Digestibilities o nitrogen, lipid, and energy increased with increasing cottonseed in the diet...

Effect of processing whole cottonseed on nutrient digestibility and ruminal fermentation in dairy cows*

Four ruminally cannulated Holstein cows were used in a 4 × 4 Latin square design to determine the effect of feeding linted, delinted and extruded linted whole cottonseed (WCS) on nutrient digestibility and ruminal fermentation. Result showed that crude protein digestibility was lower in linted and delinted WCS treatments than control and extruded linted WCS treatment. Cows fed extruded delinted...

Effect of different levels of monensin in diets containing whole cottonseed on milk production and composition of lactating dairy cows

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of feeding different levels of monensin on feed intake, milk production and composition, and milk fattyacid profile in lactating Holstein cows. Four multiparous cows averaging 517 ± 47 (SD) kg in body weight and 101 ± 19.8 (SD) days in milk were housed individually in tie-stalls. The study was conducted as a 4 × 4 Latin square design for ...
