The effect of replacing increasing levels of high-energy cottonseed meal (0, 8.7, 17.4, 26.1 and 34,8% DM) with soybean meal in concentrate for cows in the final lactation third on intake, nutrient digestibility, nitrogen efficiency and milk yield was assessed. Five crossbred 5/8 Holstein × 3/8 Gir cows were allotted to a 5 × 5 Latin square design, with five 18-day periods (eight days for adaptation and 10 days to determine intake and collect samples). The diets were formulated to […]
