NOURISHING PRODUCTIVITY: EXAMINING THE IMPACT OF CONCENTRATE FEED AND MINERAL BLOCKS ON DENSITY LEVELS AND MILK FAT CONTENT IN DAIRY CATTLE

Desty Sidik , Professor in Animal Husbandry Department, Faculty Veterinary Medicine of Universitas Airlangga, Indonesia

Abstract

This study investigates the effects of dietary components, specifically concentrate feed and mineral blocks, on the density levels and milk fat content of dairy cattle. A comprehensive examination was conducted to assess how these nutritional interventions influence the overall productivity and milk quality in dairy herds. The research involved a controlled feeding regimen, monitoring density levels, and analyzing milk fat content to gain insights into the intricate relationship between diet and dairy performance.

Keywords
