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...
متن کاملPerformance of lactating dairy cows fed varying levels of total mixed ration and pasture.
Two, 8-week experiments, each using 30 lactating Holstein cows, were conducted to examine performance of animals offered combinations of total mixed ration (TMR) and high-quality pasture. Experiment 1 was initiated in mid October 2004 and Experiment 2 was initiated in late March 2005. Cows were assigned to either a 100% TMR diet (100:00, no access to pasture) or one of the following three formu...
متن کاملHeat production and retained energy in lactating cows held under hot summer conditions with evaporative cooling and fed two rations differing in roughage content and in vitro digestibility.
The objective of this study was to measure the effect of feeding two total mixed rations (TMRs), differing in their roughage content and in vitro dry matter (DM) digestibility, on the physiological response and energy balance of lactating cows. The partitioning of metabolizable energy intake (MEI) between heat production (HP) and retained energy (RE) of cows held under hot weather conditions an...
متن کاملSite of mineral absorption in lactating cows fed high-fat diets.
Five lactating Holstein cows with ruminal and duodenal cannulas were used in a 5 x 5 Latin square to determine the site of mineral absorption and effects of sources and amount of dietary fat on apparent absorption. Cows were fed (DM, 17.4 +/- .8 kg/d) chopped alfalfa hay, alfalfa haylage, corn silage, and concentrate at 1:1:1:2 (DM) at 12-h intervals. Calcium salts of palm fatty acid distillate...
متن کاملFeeding value of glycerol as a replacement for corn grain in rations fed to lactating dairy cows.
Growth of the corn ethanol industry has created a need for alternatives to corn for lactating dairy cows. Concurrent expansion in soydiesel production is expected to increase availability and promote favorable pricing for glycerol, a primary co-product material. The objective of this study was to determine the feeding value of glycerol as a replacement for corn in diets fed to lactating dairy c...
