Dairy farming is increasingly affected by the digital revolution. To respond to current
challenges—such as environmental, economic, and social sustainability—new technologies …

The drive to increase the output of animal product in some sectors of ruminant livestock
production has led to greater use of feeds such as cereal grains and soyabean meal that are …

This study aimed to investigate the effects of feeding dairy calves starter diets containing
corn grain processed by different methods (ground versus steam-flaked; GRC vs. SFC) and …

Corn grain has a high starch content and is used as main energy source in ruminant diets.
Compared with finely ground corn (FGC), steam-flaked corn (SFC) could improve the milk …

Objective Our objective was to evaluate the effects of in-feed, non-antibiotic alternatives
(Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-1077 and calcium clinoptilolite zeolite) on health …

To test whether total-tract starch digestibility by lactating dairy cattle could be predicted
accurately from concentration of starch in fecal dry matter (FS), data from 8 digestibility trials …

To evaluate the utility of N as a digestion marker to predict total tract starch digestion, data
from 32 metabolism trials involving 147 steers and 637 individual starch digestibility …

Sorghum forage is an alternative crop that is more adapted to drier conditions and more
resistant than corn to drought conditions. Thus, sorghum forage maximizes water utilization …

This study evaluated the interactive effects of forage provision on performance, nutritional
behavior, apparent digestibility, rumen fermentation, and blood metabolites of dairy calves …

Published regression equations relating digestibility of starch to fecal starch concentration
have slopes that differ by over 5-fold. Hence, nutritionists have questioned their legitimacy …
