Low Milk Production

Published: January 2, 2014
By: Indrajeet Vikhe

Hello,

We have 20 HF cows in our farm which are at second lactation. We feed them corn, alfalfa, pellets, mineral mixture.jowar forage. The problem we are facing is that cows don't have the require body weight and this results in low milk production ie 10liter/day.

It would be helpful if you can guide us with nutrient and feeding management.

Thanks

for low milk production and low BCS, supply bypass fat @ 10g/1kgmilk and bypass protein particularly in transition period 30day prepartum and 90 days post partum is good option.

In order to increase the milking of the cattle, you need to provide them hay, silage, non-green grass, or fresh grass. This is because microbes found in the rumen of cattle don’t function well in any type of feed. They especially don’t work in the fibrous feed when they are not fermented. Some farmers also supplement the cows' diets with brewers' grain, which is a byproduct of the beer-making process. You should also keep in mind about frequency of feeding dairy cattle. Feeding dairy cows these types of feeds helps to increase milk production. The carbohydrates in the feed help to produce glucose and lactose in the cow's blood stream. Lactose is then transported into the cow's mammary gland, where it is turned into milk.
