The objective of this trial was to evaluate the effect of supplementing diets with similar protein, fiber and lipid contents with different lipid sources on dry matter intake, milk yield and feed efficiency of early lactating Jersey cows. Eight multiparous cows averaging 420 kg of body weight and daily yield of 20 kg of 3.5% fat corrected milk (FCM) were randomly assigned to two replicated 4 x 4 Latin squares. Each experimental period lasted four weeks and means were compared […]

Eight high-yielding Jersey cows were randomly assigned to two 4×4 Latin squares to study the effects of different dietary fat sources on intakes of dry matter (DMI), neutral detergent fiber (NDFI), and ether extract (EEI) as well as on milk yield and composition. The following treatments were used: concentrate with no added fat (control = C); concentrate plus tallow (T); concentrate plus commercial ruminally protected fat (calcium salts + palm oil; PF); and concentrate plus whole soybean (WS). Both DMI […]
