Journal ArticleDOI

A net carbohydrate and protein system for evaluating cattle diets: II. Carbohydrate and protein availability.

TL;DR: The Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System has a submodel that predicts rates of feedstuff degradation in the rumen, the passage of undegraded feed to the lower gut, and the amount of ME and protein that is available to the animal.
Journal ArticleDOI

A net carbohydrate and protein system for evaluating cattle diets: I. Ruminal fermentation.

TL;DR: The Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System (CNCPS) has a kinetic submodel that predicts ruminal fermentation and the protein-sparing effect of ionophores is accommodated by decreasing the rate of peptide uptake by 34%.
Journal ArticleDOI

A net carbohydrate and protein system for evaluating cattle diets: III. Cattle requirements and diet adequacy.

TL;DR: The Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System (CNCPS) has equations for predicting nutrient requirements, feed intake, and feed utilization over wide variations in cattle, feed carbohydrate and protein fractions and their digestion and passage rates, and environmental conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitrogen fractions in selected feedstuffs

TL;DR: In this paper, Nitrogen in selected feedstuffs was fractionated based on solubility in mineral solvents and detergent solutions, and the results showed that Borate-phosphate buffer had a correlation coefficient of.92 with insoluble nitrogen obtained with autoclaved rumen fluid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Path analysis of dry period nutrition, postpartum metabolic and reproductive disorders, and mastitis in Holstein cows.

TL;DR: The study suggests that feeding higher intakes of protein and energy in the last 3 week of the dry period may reduce the incidence of metabolic and reproductive disorders.
