What is Protein Amino acid chain What is AA polypeptide that contains N Essential and non essential methionine and lysine
Protein Uses Milk Growth Wool Maintenance Metabolic Fecal Nitrogen Dermal Loss Endogenous Urinary Protein
Protein Requirements Expressed as Crude Protein because CP = 6.25 X % N example would be alfalfa hay 18.8% crude protein = 3% N
Protein Requirements Varies with Stage of production Level of production Composition of lamb gain Ewes 9-15 Lambs 11-20
Protein Sources Intake protein Microbial protein

Intake Protein Quality Urea versus SBM Quality is determined by how well the AA composition matches animal needs. Biological value
Microbial Protein Quality Biological Value .66
Microbial Protein Yield TDN intake x .13 40-80 % total protein Rumen N requirement 9% CP diet
Maximizing Microbial Protein Yield Energy: Protein Ratio 50% 7.8 65% 9.8 80% 12.1 TDN Concentration % CP .13 lbs microbial crude protein/lb TDN
Protein Nutrition Why do we care? Deficiency reduces production depressed forage digestion Excess increases main., $$$$$ and environment
NPN Precautions <1/3 of total protein intake must have fermentable energy increases need for S
Using information Protein needs with Alfalfa hay versus corn stalk Corn stalks always need supplemental protein Alfalfa hay seldom needs supplemental protein

New Sheep NRC Protein Requirements set based off of % UIP More UIP the lower the total protein requirement
Using information Very high producing animals may need escape protein. ex. Ewes rearing triplets Economics escape protein is expensive Is extra production worth cost?
