Cows feed juicy feed to produce more milk

Feeding succulent feed to dairy cows is an extremely important technical measure to increase the milk production of dairy cows. It can improve the succulent feed of dairy cows with more milk, including roots, tubers and melons. The water content of these feeds is generally as high as 70% - 90%, the content of sugar and starch in dry matter is higher, the cellulose content is not more than 10%, and there is a certain amount of minerals. Feeding practice has proved that this kind of feed has good palatability and the digestibility is as high as 80%-90%, which is an important feed for improving the milk yield of dairy cows. The following is a brief introduction to the nutritional characteristics and feeding methods of several main succulent feeds: kMn China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

1. Beet sugar beet contains 5%-6% sugar, 1%-2% protein, 1.7% crude fiber, and 9% nitrogen-free extract. When feeding, it should be washed and chopped. Each cow can feed 30-40 kg per day and beef cattle 6 kg. Feeded beet feed should not be left for too long to avoid the formation of nitrates that cause cow poisoning. kMn China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

2. Beet residue Fresh beet pulp contains 90% water, 0.9% crude protein, 0.1% crude fat, 2.6% crude fiber, 3.5% nitrogen-free extract, but no carotene and vitamin D. Feeding sugar beet can provide the cow with the necessary filling material. Beet pulp can feed 3-5 kg ​​per cow per day. kMn China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

3. Potato and potato contain an average of 22% dry matter, 1.6% crude protein, 0.1% crude fat, 0.7% crude fiber, and 18.7% nitrogen-free extract. Every 3.5-4 kg of potato is equivalent to 1 kg of cereal, and about 80% of the dry matter is starch, which is easy to digest, but lacks methionine, calcium, phosphorus and carotene. It is a typical carbohydrate-rich concentrate. One of the main sources of energy for dairy cows. Feed 20-26 kg per cow per day, and pay attention to the protein, minerals and vitamin supplements in the diet. kMn China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

4. Carrot and carrot have a dry matter content of 12% and mostly soluble sugar, crude protein 1.1%, crude fat 0.3%, crude fiber 1.2%, and nitrogen-free extract 8.4%, which are male animals, milk producing female animals and young animals. High quality juicy feed. When feeding, it should be washed and shredded, feeding 20-25 kg per cow per day, and 5-7 kg of bulls. When storing, it is best to bury it with wet sand to prevent decay and nutrient loss. kMn China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

5. Melon and fruit feed mainly includes pumpkin, watermelon rind and melon skin. This type of feed has the most water content. For example, the water content of pumpkin is 90%-95%, and the dry matter is about 10%, wherein the crude protein is 1%, the crude fat is 0.3%, the crude fiber is 1.2%, and the nitrogen-free extract is 6.8%. This type of feed has more soluble sugar and starch and contains a lot of carotene. When feeding, it should be washed and shredded, and 15-20 kg per cow per day. kMn China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry
