The effects of frequency of feeding on milk production of dairy cattle: an analysis of published results

John P. Gibson
- 01 Apr 1984 - 
TL;DR: It was concluded that cows producing milk of commercially acceptable milk fat concentrations were unlikely to benefit from increased feeding frequency, and increases in milk fat concentration through increasedfeeding frequency were generally insufficient to bring the milkfat concentration up to a commercially acceptable level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feeding frequency for lactating cows: effects on digestion, milk production and energy utilization.

TL;DR: It is concluded that at fixed feed intakes, the main response to increased meal frequency is likely to be a reduction in milk fat depression and that this will be confined to diets containing not more than about 200 g modified acid-detergent fibre/kg dry matter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feeding behavior and performance of lambs are influenced by flavor diversity.

TL;DR: Exposure to diverse flavors has the potential to increase feed intake and induce a more even consumption of feed across time by reducing peaks and nadirs of intake compared with exposure to monotonous rations.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of level and frequency of concentrate feeding on the performance of dairy cows of different yield potential

TL;DR: There was no significant effect of level of feeding on the 20-week milk yield but there was a significant effect on the yield of the LYLP class in weeks 9–20, while live-weight changes were small and the largest variation was recorded in highyielding cows.

Effect of absence of ciliate protozoa from the rumen on microbial activity and growth of lambs.

TL;DR: It was concluded that the rumen ciliate protozoa are essential for the metabolism and growth of young lambs.
