Abstract
The diurnal patterns of feed intake and TMR composition influence blood parameters in dairy cows; however, the effect of feeding TMR with different compositions in the morning and evening meals is not well characterized. In a completely random design, forty Holstein cows (110 ± 30 days postpartum) were randomly assigned to four treatment groups, with 10 cows per treatment. The treatments were as follows: a base diet containing 50 % cereal starch from barley grain and 50 % cereal starch from corn grain in the morning and evening meal + either prilled fatty acids supplement (EqP) or calcium salts of fatty acids supplement (EqCS); a base diet containing 25 % cereal starch from barley grain, 75 % cereal starch from corn grain in the morning meal, and 75 % cereal starch from barley grain and 25 % cereal starch from corn grain in the evening meal + either prilled fatty acids supplement (DiP) or calcium salts of fatty acids supplement (DiCS). Dry matter intake was affected by treatments (P ˂ 0.01). The highest intake was observed for EqP, EqCS, DiP,and DiCS. 3.5 % fat-corrected milk and milk fat percentage was significantly higher for EqP than other treatments (P ˂ 0.01), but other milk components were not significantly different among treatments (P ˃ 0.05). A significant difference was observed for glucose, cholesterol, TG, AST, and insulin concentration among treatments (P ˂ 0.01). The concentrations of all plasma parameters (glucose, cholesterol, TG, BUN, AST, insulin, and NEFA) significantly changed over 24-h period (P ˂ 0.01). Plasma concentrations of glucose, cholesterol, TG, BUN, AST, insulin, and NEFA displayed a treatment-by-time interaction (P ˂ 0.01). In general, changes in the cereal starch ratio (corn and barley) in TMR in each meal during a day affect the 24-h concentration of plasma parameters, but there was no strong evidence of leverage for cows’ metabolism.
期刊介绍:
Animal Feed Science and Technology is a unique journal publishing scientific papers of international interest focusing on animal feeds and their feeding.
Papers describing research on feed for ruminants and non-ruminants, including poultry, horses, companion animals and aquatic animals, are welcome.
The journal covers the following areas:
Nutritive value of feeds (e.g., assessment, improvement)
Methods of conserving and processing feeds that affect their nutritional value
Agronomic and climatic factors influencing the nutritive value of feeds
Utilization of feeds and the improvement of such
Metabolic, production, reproduction and health responses, as well as potential environmental impacts, of diet inputs and feed technologies (e.g., feeds, feed additives, feed components, mycotoxins)
Mathematical models relating directly to animal-feed interactions
Analytical and experimental methods for feed evaluation
Environmental impacts of feed technologies in animal production.
