Milk Fat Concentration • Most variable component of milk • Increased during periods of energy deficit • Decreased when fed diets containing unsaturated fatty acids (most grains) and low effective fiber (change rumen conditions) • Milk fat depression (<2.8% fat) • Fatty acid changes also occur
Milk Protein Concentration • Not too variable • Changes related to dietary energy intake, not dietary protein • little effect of dietary fat on milk protein concentration unless perturb normal rumen function • fermentable carbohydrate intake is the key! • Maximize VFA and microbial protein production
Udder Pressure & Secretion Rate 1.5 1.0 Secretion Rate (kg/hr) (____) 0.5 0
Secretion Rate • Influence of udder pressure • Milking intervals • 12 hour vs. other • 2X vs. 3X • young vs. old cows
