The Correct Feeding Method And Amount Of 6 Kinds Of Cattle Feed
There are many types of cattle feed, such as forage, mixed feed, energy feed, protein feed, etc., but it is not enough to feed the cattle in a single brain. Many feeds must pay attention to the feeding method and the amount of feeding, and the feed production and processing are unreasonable. The wrong feeding method or the inappropriate feeding amount will be detrimental to the digestion of the cattle, and even endanger the normal growth and development and physical and mental health of the cattle.
The following is a detailed introduction to the correct feeding methods of 6 kinds of cattle feed for everyone. I hope that it will be of some help to many friends who raise cattle.
1. Feed the cow with bran feed
Bran is a by-product in the process of processing wheat into noodles. It is cheap and contains vitamins and phosphorus. However, it contains high methyl cellulose, low nutrients, and cannot be digested and absorbed. Feeding a lot of bran to cattle for a long time will harm the cattle. The digestion of feed will cause an imbalance in the proportion of cattle calcium and phosphorus. The actual amount of bran added to the cow’s diet should depend on the size and season of the cow. Feed more for breeding cows, more for calves, less for fattening cows, more for summer, and less for winter, but the maximum feeding amount is not suitable to exceed 15% of the total output of concentrate.
2. Feed the cow with bran feed
The bran is rich in crude fat and vegetable oil, and its kinetic energy is high, but the bran is very easy to mold, so it is best to use fresh bran to feed the cattle. The bran also has the effect of laxative. Excessive feeding will harm the digestion of feed by the cow. Under normal circumstances, the amount of bran fed is not suitable to exceed 20% of the total output of the cow’s diet.
3. Feeding legumes to cows
Generally, it is not recommended to feed cows directly with legumes. Because most legumes contain anti-nutrient factors, feeding cows can harm digestion, and is prone to problems such as rumen flatulence and diarrhea. When using legumes to feed cows, they must be steamed or roasted first to destroy the anti-nutritional factors inside according to the high temperature, and then feed the cows. In addition, it must be noted that the feeding amount is not suitable for excessive consumption to prevent the cows from digesting Problems such as bad, rumen flatulence and diarrhea.
4. Feed the cow with tofu residue and leucorrhea
Tofu residue leucorrhea has the same anti-nutritive factor coefficient as raw bean foods. It should be heated or mellow to solve the anti-nutrient factor coefficient before being used to feed cattle. Tofu residue leucorrhea is also very prone to corruption, especially in summer, a sour smell will appear within a few hours. Tofu residue leucorrhea is best to be freshly fed, and it can be dried and dried or sealed when it must be stored. It is mellow, and it is forbidden to feed cattle after corruption. In addition, although tofu residue leucorrhea has a high protein content, it lacks nutrients such as minerals and vitamins. Therefore, it cannot be used alone for feeding. It should be effectively matched with other coarse, refined, and green feeds. Generally, the amount of tofu residue leucorrhea is not suitable for longer than the day. 30% of total grain output.
5. Feeding red yeast rice wine to cattle
Red yeast rice wine is leftovers in the process of grain wine making. It contains crude fat, vitamin B and other nutrients. It is a very good feed for breeding cattle. However, there are many common problems when feeding red yeast rice wine to cattle.
The first red yeast rice wine contains ethanol, fusel, etc., which should be dried to evaporate the ethanol before feeding to cattle to prevent the red yeast rice wine from being poisoned.
The second red yeast rice wine not only contains ethanol but also has more acidity and alkalinity. It is very easy to produce small yields after feeding cows, so cows are not suitable for feeding this kind of feed.
Although the third red yeast rice wine is good, it cannot be fed all the red yeast rice wine. Under normal circumstances, the feeding amount of red yeast rice wine is not suitable to exceed 40% of the total ration output.
6. Feeding meal and cottonseed meal to cattle
Rapeseed cakes contain certain toxins. They must be detoxified before being fed to cows. Cottonseed cakes can be detoxified by soaking in cold water and then boiled. Rapeseed cakes can be detoxified in addition to boiling. Use roasting method to detoxify. However, even the detoxified cottonseed meal and rapeseed meal are not suitable for feeding too much. The protein feed must be dominated by soybean cypress and peanut kernel meal.
None of the above six cattle feeds can be used as a single food to feed cattle, and they must be mixed with other cattle feeds. General cattle feed needs to be processed by a cattle feed making machine and then matched and fed according to the breed and stage of the cattle. Therefore, a good feed must also be combined with the correct feeding method to raise healthy and strong cows.
