The effect of a energy supplement (corn grain) on the herbage intake and milk yield of lactating dairy cows grazing italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum) was evaluated. The treatments were 2 and 4 kg of ground corn/cow.day. Eight Holstein cows in the second third of their lactation were divided in two groups in switch back procedure. The expected herbage allowance was 35 kg/cow.day in rotational grazing system. Individual herbage intake was estimated from output fecal and the digestibility of the selected […]
