Some factors affecting sieving performance and efficiency

Factors Affecting Manure Excretion by Dairy Cows

Manure in an inevitable byproduct of the production of meat and milk destined for human consumption. Excessive excretion of manure and manure nutrients represent inefficiencies which increase feed costs, increase the environmental impact of dairy farming, and increase the costs associated with moving and storing manure. Profitability can be enhanced when good feeding and management practices ar...

Factors Affecting Manure Output on Dairy Farms

The amount of manure produced on dairy farms can affect the financial bottom line. Labor, equipment, and facilities are needed to move and store manure, all of which have a cost. Increased output of manure can represent losses in potentially digestible nutrients (increased feed costs). Lastly, the environmental impact of dairy farming is strongly related with the quantity and composition of man...

Factors Affecting Diet Digestibility in Dairy Cattle

Feces typically comprises the greatest loss of ingested energy in ruminants, and the variation in converting digestible energy to metabolizable energy is usually small. Diet digestibility is determined by intrinsic properties of interand intramolecular structure of plant cell walls, which establish the upper potential for the rate and extent of cell wall digestion in ruminants (Mertens, 1993). ...

Factors Affecting Feed Efficiency of Dairy Cows

Feed efficiency (FE) is a concept that has gained popularity in recent years in the dairy industry. Monitoring FE is becoming a more common benchmark for monitoring the profitability of milk production relative to dry matter (DM) intake. In today’s markets, feeds and commodities are becoming more costly, which is driving the requirement for more efficient utilization to maintain profitability. ...
