Boosting milk components and synthesized fatty acids in lactating dairy cows

Published: April 6, 2018
Summary
In the current context of the international dairy market, increasing milk production regarding quantity is no longer relevant due to low prices. Now more than ever, producing more milk fat and protein is a proven way to enhance herd profitability.  The best way to boost milk fat and protein is to promote rumen fermentation with a particular focus on fiber digestion. It is important to no...

Hello.
I would like to receive some more information regarding the major factors significantly affecting fatty acid synthesis of the three fat types. Any information about the economic and health justification that allows shifting from the current milk production and composition is greatly needed. Do accept my deep respect and gratitude.

Gagan Sobti yes, it is common to feed more than 2% of a by-pass fat but this depends on DM intake and ration composition, other fat sources fed and the type of BP fat you are wanting to feed. Regards, Steve

Dear Gagan ji We should calculate requirement of fat on the basis of dry matter requirement of an animal. Based upon it, we can add by pass fat. Higher concentration can effect rumen optimisation

Munish Sharma Sir, mostly our customers said us that milk yield and snf is increased when they used our Royalfed compounded cattle feeds, but fat content is down to 3.80 of cows from 4%. We add 99% berga fats @1%. Is there is any solution for increasing fat content?

Sir, if you want to increase fat & snf % focus on digestion of fiber. First, calculate the ndf & adf % feed second use additive for rumen fermentation.

If you have access to whole sunflower seeds with the shells on at a reasonable price you can get excellent results increasing milk components and no health side effects to worry about for the cow. I use to feed about two pounds per day per cow with milk production averaging over 60 pounds a day or higher. The shell of the sunflower seeds were a great source of fibre as well.

Laurie Chambers thank you for your comments. I am in the US and we don't have access to much whole sunflower seed. Mist of it is only available as meal where most of the fat and tbe hulls have been removed. However, I would not be surprised at all if WSF has a good fatty acid profile. Would you have access to this to share with us? Kindesr regards, Steve
