Milk production based on grass/clover silage and cereal grain

Spörndly, Rolf; Spörndly, Eva

Abstract

The aim with the present experiment was to study the effect of exclusion of protein concentrates in the diet for dairy cows using silage with high or low crude protein contents. The response was evaluated in terms of yield and composition of milk and feed intake. Economic calculations of milk income minus feed cost were made using the result of the experiment and current prices of feed and milk in spring 2013.
