There is no general consensus about a method to assess the bioavailability of rumen-protected methionine (RPM). Measuring methionine (MET) concentrations in blood can be misleading because of differences in the coating technology, which impacts the release of MET. Indeed, MET from Mepron® (85% DLM; Evonik) is protected with ethylcellulose and is released during intestinal “abrasion” of the coating, leading to its slow release into the blood. Conversely, RPM products coated...

Introduction Suboptimal milk yield limits the U.S. dairy industry’s productive competitiveness, marginalizes efforts to reduce inputs into food production, and increases animal agriculture’s carbon footprint. There are a variety of circumstances in a cow’s life which result in hindered productivity including heat stress, rumen and hindgut acidosis, feed restriction, and psychological stress associated with normal animal practices (i.e., pen changes, weaning,...

Introduction The metabolic cages are used to study the metabolism of feeds in the animal. Metabolic trials are conducted to collect the feces, urine and feeds residue using precisely for analysis nutrients intake, digestibility, nitrogen and mineral balance. It is generally conducted in confined shed/shelter with underground place for urine collection. It is observed that due to movement of animal urine collection pipes comes out of the drum resulting in loss of urine. In this...

The Historical use of Models in Animal Agriculture Models of all types have a strong history of application in animal production, where their objectives have typically revolved around optimally feeding and growing livestock. For ~50 years, mathematical models have been assisting researchers, nutritionists and producers with decision making on various aspects of livestock production. A typical trajectory for model development has been (1) the execution of experiments to...

Introduction Ruminants play a crucial role in food security. They supply 51% of all protein from the livestock sector; of which 67 and 33% are from milk and meat, respectively (Gerber et al., 2013). For many populations, livestock is a primary source of nutrition, and not simply a source of calories. Ruminants have the digestive particularity of being able to digest fibrous material (i.e., forages, agro-industrial by-products and crop residues) that is not edible to humans, and...

Introduction Near record high feed, fuel, and fertilizer prices, and high inflation rates all have put increasing economic burden on beef producers. The increased cost of feeding cattle means that increasing feed efficiency is critical to feedlot production. Historically, feed costs represent about 70% of the total cost of production for feedlot operators and therefore, feed efficiency has 4 x greater economic return when compared to the same improvement in feedlot growth (Gibb and...
