Influence of the new additive "KD-Bish" on further dairy productivity of cows and milk quality

Introduction. In dairy farming technology, the most significant stages are the dry period and the milking period. The importance of these stages can hardly be overestimated for unlocking the genetic potential of dairy cows, since at the first stage we get healthy offspring from highly productive animals, and at the second the foundations are laid for the economic efficiency of milk and dairy products production. It is known that unlocking the genetic potential of dairy productivity of animals implies providing them with highquality complete feed, including various biologically active and feed additives, and corrective substances.

Object. Holstein cows aged three years.

Materials and methods. The experiment was carried out on two groups of cows (control and experimental), each of which consisted of 30 heads. The control group of animals received a standard diet; the cows of the experimental group received the feed additive “KD-Bish” (380 g per head per day) in addition to the standard diet. The duration of the experiment was 194 days.

Results and conclusions. The use of a new feed additive in the technology of growing Holstein cows during the dry period during 21 days before calving contributed to increase milk yield, improve milk quality indicators and increase the production of dairy products.
