Abstract

Delicate Artistic Cereal Provision to Reduce Negative Nutrient Balance and Improve Dairy Cow Health

Akbar Nikkhah

This article introduces a pragmatic approach of delicate cereal grain feeding to improve high-merit cow health in modern dairy farms. Meticulous inclusion of moderate amount of wheat and barley grains along with corn or sorghum grain has the capacity to moderately manipulate milk fat. This manipulation attempts to reduce the intense pressure on high-producing cows in meeting increased nutrient requirements. As a result of attenuated negative energy balance, liver and splanchnic metabolism and cow's systemic immunity can improve.
