N. C. Dairy Scientists
Report On Cows Eating
North Carolina State College
dairy scientists have discovered
that dairy cows will consume much
larger quantities of hay than 1*
generally believed and still sup
port a high level of production.
J. E. Legates, W. R. Murley,
and R. K. Waugh, reporting on
results of a research project be
fore the American Dairy Science
Association at a meeting held re
cently In Storrs, Conn., also re
ported that there are significant
differences In the ability of cattle
breeds to consume hay.
| The researchers said the infor
mation yielded by their project
| will be used to try to increase for
age-consumption traits in cattle.
Using 17 cows of the Ayrshire.
Guernsey, Holsteln, and Jersey
breeds for their tests, the North
Carolinians found that cows will
not consume maximum amounts of
hay during the first month to
six weeks of lactation, but will
reach a peak at eight to 10 weeks
after freshening This level of hay
consumption Is rather consistently 1
maintained, even after production
begins to decline.
Consumption of hay during the
ninth to 12 week of lactation
was used to characterize the In
take of the cows.
Individual animals showed 100
per cent Increases In hay Intake,
and the high cow reached a peak
of 60 pounds of hay a day after
consuming only 30 pounds during
the first month on trial.
Consumption of hay was most
closely associated with body
weight, and was. essentially. Inde
pendent of milk yield.
The cows were fed O. S. No. 2
alfalfa hay free choice, and a
limited amount of gram.
Increased use of electricity on
farms has led to lower average
cost per kilowatt hour paid by
farmers but somewhat higher
monthly electric bills.
