The Hohenheim Feeding Value Test was established in the 1980s to determine the energy content of feed for ruminants. The determination of the gas volume produced on the one hand and the chromatographic analysis of the liquid and gaseous phases on the other hand allow the use of this test, modified by us, as a screening tool for the in vitro investigation of different active substances. This test ...

Step 1. Planning: he high energy and starch content of forage maize make it a highly valuable silage. But maize is also one of your riskiest forages in terms of preserving it. With its two opponents knocking on the door of: (1) aerobic spoilage (heating) caused by yeasts and moulds in the presence of air; and (2) risks to fermentation, especially when making greener, moister maize silage – ...

As mentioned above there is a lag period between introducing a new diet and the rumen adjusting to more efficiently utilise the new diet. Studies have shown that the rumen papillae respond to dietary changes by changing size and shape in order to increase or decrease the surface area of the rumen wall and thus speed up or slow down absorption of nutrients. It is estimated that a period of about ...

Since feed is the highest expense on dairy farms, the feeding program is a critical element for dairy’s financial success. Recent audits of feeding programs on dairies suggest that variability on nutrient composition of diets (total mixed rations; TMR) is a serious problem that may affect cow production performance and health. In a survey of 22 Canadian dairy farms, the average TMR ...

Utilizing in vitro analysis, we are able to analyze forages and feedstuffs to determine the best ration composition for health and performance. This technology is also useful as a diagnostic tool to test TMR samples and reveal opportunities that may enhance performance. These opportunities may not be evident by other analytical technologies. Most digestibility analyses determine a 30- or 48-hour ...
