چکیده
Veira, D. M., Charmley, L. L., Charmley, E. and Lee, A. J. 2001. The effect of feeding soybean oil to mid-lactation dairy cows on milk production and composition and on diet digestion. Can. J. Anim. Sci. 81: 425–428. Mid-lactation Holstein cows were used to test the effect of feeding 3% soybean oil (SBO) on total mixed ration intake, apparent digestibility, milk production, and milk composition. Effect of SBO on rate and extent of rumen digestion was determined with nylon bags incubated in the rumen of fistulated cows. SBO reduced fibre digestion by 9% and degradability by 20%. Feeding of SBO caused a slight reduction in total mixed ration (TMR) intake, milk production, and milk protein production. However, these reductions were minor compared with the large reduction in fat production (0.2 kg d–1).

The objective of this study was to compare the effects of soybean (SB) meal (SBM) with increased rumen undegradable protein as roasted SB (RSB), extruded SB (ESB) or their equal blend (RSB + ESB) on production performance, nutrient digestibility, N-utilization efficiency, and blood metabolites in mid-lactation dairy cows. Eight lactating Holstein cows (BW = 534 ± 52 and DIM = 104 ± 5; mean ± SD...

This study investigated the effects of replacing soybean meal (SM) with canola meal (CM) and decreasing crude protein (CP) levels in CM based diets on performance of dairy cows when different sources of processed grains and CM were used. Canola meal was untreated or roasted at 130°C for 30 minutes and grains sources (corn and barley) were either ground or steamed-flaked. Eight Holstein cows (...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of different levels of oil and soybean meal and Canola meal separately and mixed on productive performance, rumination and digestibility of nutrients in Holstein dairy cows. This research was carried out in a completely randomized design on 35 Holstein dairy cattle with 7 treatments and 5 cows with an average weight of 650 ± 40 kg. Treatments...

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...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of diets containing roasted soybean (R), extruded soybean (E) or their combination (RE) on dairy cow performance and milk fatty acid (FA) profile. Nine multiparous lactating Holstein cows (680 ± 25 kg BW; 90 ± 10 DIM; means ± SD) were randomly assigned to a triple 3 × 3 Latin square design. Dry matter intake (DMI), apparent nutrient dige...
