Nutritional Value Of Raw Materials Used In The Milk Cattle, Canton Cayambe

Abstract:

Commonly, feeding of replacement heifers in a dairy farm is underestimated which leads to nutritional deficiencies reflected on low weigh gain, low adequate weight at first service (16-18 months old) and low milk production when replacement heifers reach their production stage. The objective of this research was to determine the nutritional quality of the main raw materials used dairy cattle feeding in Canton Cayambe. Raw materials were assessed based on the chemical composition, consumption parameters and the relationships between quality, consumption, weigh gain and costs. This data can contribute with management decisions compliance of specific nutritional or production targets. Rising of replacement heifers dairy production systems is of great importance since they will determine the continuity and improvement of the herd.
