Effects of Lipid Inclusion and Saturation of Dietary Fatty Acids on Nutrient Transport Across the Ruminant Gastrointestinal Tract
Published:August 26, 2021
Summary
Introduction Supplemental lipids are commonly included in diets for ruminants (Doreau and Ferlay 1994). These lipids are components of feedstuffs or through the addition of specific lipid additives (Loften et al. 2014). Most commonly, these lipid additives are used to increase the energy density of the diet (Hess et al. 2008), but can also be used to modulate the fatty acid (F...
Waiting for the interested results of the study. Majority of the farmers at this end practice to drench oil to their cattle and buffalo and they get impact on animal health & production as per their statemen. Remember they are illiterate and have no scientific reference except that their parents did the same since long. Their way of feeding oil as such seems to be wrong due to the fact that the rumen moment may get slower and / or static. However mixing with feed may have positive effect.
