Effect of Three Concentrate Feeding Frequencies on Rumen Protozoa, Rumen Digesta Kinetics, and Milk Yield in Dairy Cows

TL;DR: There was a significant concentrate feeding frequency with sampling time interaction influence on NH3 N in which feeding concentrate four times daily minimized postprandial fluctuation of rumenNH3 N concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of intake and feeding frequency on feeding behaviour and quantitative aspects of digestion in sheep fed chaffed lucerne hay

TL;DR: The data suggest that the increased outflow of water was achieved by increasing the net flow of water across the mucosa into the reticulo-rumen, rather than by increasing salivation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Forestomach and whole tract digestibility for lactating dairy cows as influenced by feeding frequency.

TL;DR: Frequency of feeding had no effect on almost all measures and components of rumen and whole tract metabolism and digestion of lactating Holstein cows.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of frequency of feeding a total mixed ration on the production and behavior of dairy cows.

TL;DR: Cows fed infrequently had reduced milk yield if they were housed with frequently fed cows, and it was concluded that in both experiments frequent feeding disturbed the cows and reduced milk production.
