FEEDING MANAGEMENT OF CATTLE
Over the last decades an enormous amount of research has been done in to the ways in which cattle use feed to maintain life to reduce and produce all of the animal Product especialty milk Different stage of life can required different type of feeds.
Feeding of Calf Colostrum's
The calf must receive the first milk which the cow gives after calving and is called colostrum's. Be sure to feed the calf enough of colostrum's between 2 Lt daily for first 3 days. The digestibility of colostrum's increase when it given at a temperature between 99% and 102%. The Protein of colostrum's consist of a must higher Proportion of globulin than normal milk. Globulin helps antibodies formation in body to protect the animal to many infections. Better quality of our feed ration of lactating cow to eat neonatal calf first time Subsequently on the second day, shows globulin level in blood serum of neonatal calves has a peak value 28.18mg/ml. This Peak value of globulin can help better anybody formation in neonatal calf.
Feeding Calf Starters
Calf starter is a mixture consisting of ground farm grains, Proteins, vitamins, minerals and antibiotic. After the calf attain age 2 week. amount of whole milk given to it may be cut down one should then rub a small amount of starter on the calf mouth after each milk feeding for a few days when they reach 4 months of age then calf to given growing ration. Better quality of our feed ration of lactating cow to eat neonatal calf first time subsequently on the second day, show globulin leaved in blood serum of neonatal clues has a Peak value 28. 18 mg/mt. This Peak value of globulin can help better anybody formation in neonatal calf.
Feeding Grain Mixture
Better growth and greater resistance to calf result from consumption of grain 7-15 days, the feeding of grain mixtures may be started. Excessive Protein rich grain mixture is not desirable as milk is already rich in protein A medium protein grain mixture is more suitable when milk is fed only.
Feeding of growing animal (From 6-month onward)
For calves between one year of age it is always desirable to given concentrate in addition to good roughage so that they make optimum growth. A Judicious mixture of roughage and concentrate is essential for obtaining optimum growth without under fat deposition. Age more than 6-month calves can be given the same type of concentrate mixture (16-18% digestible crude Protein and about 70% total digestible nutrients) use for all adult cottle.
Feeding of Lactating Cow
Cattle should envisage minimum wastage of nutrients and maximum returns in respect of milk Produced. A concentrate mixture made up of Protein supplement, energy source, and laxative feed in generally used. High Yielding animal dry matter use more than 3% and 6% crude Protein But it is Possible to maintain milk Production up to 3-4 kg with grass legume fodder given the same type of concentrate mixture (16-18% digestible crude Protein and about 70% total digestible nutrients) use for all adult cattle.
