Assessing phosphorus overfeeding in dairy cows [PDF]

, 2012
Faecal total phosphorus (TP) from dairy cows consists of a largely insoluble fraction and a soluble P fraction (SP), which mainly represents excess P. The soluble fraction increases proportionately with increased P feeding as excess P is mainly excreted ...

Animal‐Based Brands Taking the Plant‐Based Opportunity: A Tasting Experiment Exploring Consumer Acceptance of Plant‐Based Brand Extensions

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how consumer taste and brand equity perceptions shape the acceptance of plant‐based milk products. Using a blind/informed tasting experiment, we evaluated consumers' willingness to buy (WTB) and taste perception of a plant‐based milk alternative produced by a traditional dairy brand, compared with competing plant‐based ...

Altered rumen bacterial flora is associated with increased lipogenesis of adipose tissue in obese dairy cows before calving

Microbiome
Background Prepartum obesity predisposes dairy cows to a higher risk of postpartum metabolic disorder. Volatile fatty acids (VFA) produced through ruminal microbial fermentation of feed substrates serve as a key form of energy for dairy cows.

A dataset of human-inedible byproduct feeds consumed by dairy cows in the United States

Data in Brief, 2021
Dairy cows convert human-indigestible forages and byproducts nutrients into edible food for humans [1]. Because of microbiota located in their rumen, dairy cows can digest fibrous forages and feeds which are not exploited by humans and monogastric ...

Accounting for animal health in efficiency analysis: An application to Swedish dairy farms

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Poor animal health is a central concern in modern livestock production. Despite the necessity to incorporate animal health in efficiency analysis, the theoretical and empirical developments are limited on this subject. This article appropriately characterizes the axiomatic properties of animal health within a production framework.

Contribution of Ruminal Bacteriome to the Individual Variation of Nitrogen Utilization Efficiency of Dairy Cows

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
High nitrogen utilization efficiency (NUE) is important for increasing milk protein production and decreasing the feed nitrogen cost and nitrogen emission to the environment. Currently, there is a limited whole picture of the relationship between ruminal
