Energy utilization and milk fat responses to rapeseed oil when fed to lactating dairy cows receiving different dietary forage to concentrate ratio
Animal Feed Science and Technology(2022)
摘要
We evaluated energy and N utilization, performance, and milk fatty acid (FA) profile using grass silage-based diets when rapeseed oil (RO) was included in high-or low-forage diets. Four multiparous Nordic Red cows averaging 101 +/- 16 days in milk at the beginning of the study were randomly assigned to a 4 x 4 Latin square design with a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement of treat-ments. Each 21-d period consisted of a 14-d diet adaptation period and 7-d collection period. Cows were fed the following diets comprised total mixed rations based on grass silage with forage to concentrate (FC) ratio of 35:65 and 65:35 containing 0 or 50 g/kg of RO. Significant FC x RO interactions were observed for milk yield, milk protein and lactose yields, milk fat concentration, and milk proportions of trans-11 18:1, trans-10 18:1, trans-10, cis-12 18:2, and saturated FA. Feeding low-forage diet was effective in increasing milk yield compared with the high-forage diet, and the RO supplementation increased it further (P <= 0.01). A similar pattern was observed for the yields of milk protein and lactose. Supplementing the low-forage diet with RO reduced milk fat concentration by 19% relative to other diets without affecting milk fat yield. The proportion of N intake lost as urine decreased (P <= 0.05) with the RO supplementation of low-forage diet without affecting energy and N balances. Nutrient intakes were greater (P <= 0.01) in cows fed low-forage diet, whereas RO decreased (P < 0.05) protein, starch, and fiber intakes. Methane production, expressed as a proportion of energy intake, decreased with low-forage compared with high-forage diets and this variable declined similarly by RO supplementation of both diets (P < 0.01). The milk proportions of trans-10 18:1 and trans-10, cis-12 CLA increased (P <= 0.01) by RO supplementation of the low-forage but not high-forage diet. However, RO supplementation of both high-and low-forage diets increased (P < 0.01) total trans FA and decreased saturated FA proportions, even though the changes were more profound in low-forage diet (P <= 0.01). In addition, RO increased (P < 0.01) cis monounsaturated FA in milk for both high-and low-forage diets. Overall, the low-forage diets had lower methane emissions and RO increased partitioning of N towards milk secretion (P <= 0.01) without influencing energy or N balances. According to the results, RO supplementation did not compromise intake of nutrients with low-forage diets con-taining 150 g/kg starch, and oil could be preferentially used to improve milk production and milk fat quality accompanied by a reduction in methane energy loss.
