IntroductionThe rise in milk production has been accompanied by increasing incidence of health problems, declining ability to reproduce and declining the fertility of modern dairy cows. The transition from late gestation to early lactation is viewed as one of the most challenging elements of the production cycle. Perhaps the most important physiological change occurring during this period is the d ...

waqas ahmad Dear sir, thank you for your reply on our article.Feeding enzymes to ruminants is not a new approach. This approach exists for many decades, but the results so far are very controversial. An efficient approach is to use enzymes to pretreat the forages (hay and silage) before feeding them to the cow. The rationale behind that is that the enzymes degrading fiber need a specific condition ...

IntroductionIn field conditions, body condition scoring has been accepted as most satisfactory tool for easy judgment of dairy animals for their energy status as compared to the laboratory methods like estimation of plasma NEFA, BHBA, glucose, urea, protein, etc. but they are laboratory methods which require a well-equipped lab facility, and it is expensive too. BCS is a method commonly used to de ...

Dear Branko Stuburic , the same aspects apply to protected lysine as well. It needs to be well protected from microbial degradation but release the lysine in the small intestine for absorption. A combination of methionine and lysine and one product is convenient from a handling aspect (just one product, not two). It it not the most economical solution because you can't adjust methionine and lysine ...

I am of the opinion that if we are feeding rumen protected protein meals like rapeseed, groundnut, soya etc., in the ration then feeding rumen protected lysine may not be essential. However, if the ration is supplemented with rumen protected methionine @ 10-15 g per day, along with rumen protected protein meals, it is highly economical in terms of improvement in quality and quantity of milk.

Branko Stuburic Mepron is equipped with a unique ethylcellulose coating. Feed grade DL-methionine will be used by the rumen microbes. Methionine needs to be protected from microbial degradation to become available for absorption in the intestine and subsequently available for the metabolism including protein synthesis. Mepron's coating enables the methionine in its core to bypass the rumen microb ...

When urea with silvafeed @bypro used whether the BUN levels are changing in to increase urea. since it directly affects conception rate and intercalving period will increase to great extend and may put dairy farm in heavy loss.

While the trial is interesting, it is my experience that you're only presenting part of the story. Maximizing NPN sources is entirely dependent upon the net fermentable carbohydrate profile available, while maintaining adequate peNDF. I believe a trial with a fixed level of NPN (say 1.5%bw) and a variable level of ferm. carbs (ie. 23-28) would better illustrate the dynamics of rumen NPN utilizati ...

I have gone through the study which seems to be a paltry projection of details as talked about in earlier columns by the different fraternity.Not clear about emphasising urea inclusion in presence of Soyabean flakes which in turn not advisable to be conjoined with urea in any point of time following the content of urease in soya, to catalyse the release of ammonia fast in ruminal ambience.The prop ...
