This study was designed to evaluate the effects of feeding two different volumes of colostrum immediately after birth on growth and lactational performance as growing heifers and lactating cows. Brown Swiss heifers were fed 2 L (n = 37) or 4 L (n = 31) of high quality (Grade 1) colostrum within the first hour…

Fatty acids, n-3 as well as n-6, are essential for normal physiological functioning and for the health of humans and all domestic species. It is important to emphasize an adequate linolenic acid (LNA) intake; the n-6:n-3 fatty acid ratio is not a useful concept, and it detracts from increasing absolute intakes of n-3 PUFA. In…
Purchased dairy calves were raised for 8 wk in unbedded, elevated stalls and given no forage to examine impact of offering no roughage on the growth and development of neonatal calves. High and low fiber starter diets were fed in pellet or coarse mash forms. Calves were fed milk replacer until weaned after 4 wk…
In this review, methods for assessing energy reserves, the role of assigning BCS in dairy management, and the impact of varying BCS on animal productivity, health, and reproduction are explored from a whole-system viewpoint. The usefulness, validity, and precision of BCS for assessing body energy reserves are well documented. Generally, BCS decrease in early lactation…
Meta-analysis was applied to evaluate the relationships between dietary NDF and voluntary intakes of DM and net energy by cattle from 2 databases. The databases were configured from literature publications for dairy (18 experiments) and beef cattle (11 experiments) in which dietary NDF concentration varied as a result of changes in proportions of forage and…
