New dairy feed
from Agway
SYRACUSE, NY - Agway has
reported dramatic improvements
in milk production and feed ef
ficiency in tests of new Pro:Right
RC dairy feed. Tests at the Agway
Farm Research Center resulted in
milk production increases of as
much as 9.2 per cow.
According to Dr. C. A.
MacGregor, animal nutritionist for
Agway Feed Services, regulated
carbohydrates (RC) is a new
concept that increases dairy
feeding efficiency by regulating
and balancing the carbohydrates
in a cow’s diet.
With the Pro:Right RC feed,
both the cow and her rumen
receive the correct amounts and
balance of carbohydrates and
protein. The result is greater ef
ficiency and more profitable ratio
of pounds of gram fed to pounds of
milk produced.
The RC concept calls for
regulating the amount of non
structural carbohydrate in dairy
feeds to maximize energy ef
ficiency in the rumen. Dairy
scientists have discovered that,
like protein, all carbohydrates are
not the same.
In order to unprove feed ef
ficiency and milk production,
dairy cows need specific amounts
of structural and non-structural
(NS) carbohydrate sources, as
well as the right kind and amount
of protein.
With both forms of carbohydrate
needed to meet the energy
demands of high-producing cows,
the problem dairy scientists faced
was: What is the right amount and
balance of NS carbohydrate to
maximize milk production, while
maintaining milk fat test?
Research at the Agway Technical
Center enabled Agway to establish
new NS carbohydrate values for
individual feed ingredients.
Initial tests of gram mixes
varying in level of NS car
bohydrate were formulated and
tested in milk production ranging
from 5.8% to 10.0%, and increases
in feed efficiency ranging from
5.2% to 10.0%.
Dr. MacGregor reports all test
rations had the same con
centration of crude protein,
energy, minerals, vitamins and
regulated protein solubility. The
only significant difference was the
amount of NS carbohydrate.
