Fatty Acid Digestibility and Impacts on Responses of Dairy Cows
The addition of supplemental fatty acid (FA) sources to diets is a common practice in dairy nutrition to increase dietary energy density and to support milk production. The ability to understand and model FA, the effects of individual FA, and different FA supplements on production parameters has direct impact on dairy industry recommendations and the usefulness of FA supplementation strategies....
متن کاملEffect of Corn Shredlage on lactation performance and total tract starch digestibility by dairy cows
The objective of this trial was to determine the effect of feeding a TMR containing Corn Shredlage (SHRD; Shredlage LLC, Tea, SD) or conventionally processed corn silage (KPCS) on lactation performance by dairy cows. The KPCS was harvested using conventional rolls (3-mm gap) and set at a 19-mm theoretical length of cut. The SHRD was harvested using novel cross-grooved rolls (2.5-mm gap) and set...
متن کاملFatty Acid Digestibility of Fat Sources Fed to Dairy Cows and Effects on Concentration of Fat in Milk
Milk fat yield affects the price received for milk by dairy farmers, and given the rising feed costs, maximizing diet digestibility is critical for the economical viability of dairy farms. Although feeding animal-vegetable fat or coconut oil to dairy cows can increase energy intake, they sometimes cause milk fat depression (MFD). Feeding monensin has been found to increase feed efficiency and m...
متن کاملLactation performance by dairy cows fed supplemental biotin and a B-vitamin blend.
The objective of Trial 1 was to evaluate in dairy cows the effects of dietary supplementation with biotin and a B-vitamin blend on dry matter intake (DMI), milk yield, composition and component yields, total tract nutrient digestion, and plasma metabolites. Twenty-four multiparous Holstein cows averaging 46 +/- 8 d in milk at trial initiation were randomly assigned to treatments in a replicated...
متن کاملEffect of corn snaplage on lactation performance by dairy cows
The objective of this study was to determine lactation performance by dairy cows fed corn snaplage either alone (SNAP) or in combination with ground dry shelled corn (SPDC) versus rolled high-moisture shelled corn (RHMC). Dry-matter content was greater for RHMC (78.2%) than SNAP (68.5%). The starch content of SNAP was approximately 10%-units lower than RHMC. Sixty Holstein cows (30 primiparous ...
