Effects of wheat straw particle size as a free-choice provision on growth performance and feeding behaviors of dairy calves

N. Bagheri et al.

Summary: Supplementing wheat straw in dairy calf feeding can increase solid feed intake and rumen pH, which benefits the health of calves. However, the particle size of wheat straw does not have a significant effect on calf performance in terms of growth and behavior.

Effects of brewers' spent grain protein hydrolysates on gas production, ruminal fermentation characteristics, microbial protein synthesis and microbial community in an artificial rumen fed a high grain diet

Tao Ran et al.

Summary: Supplementation of FlaH may protect CP and starch from ruminal degradation without adversely affecting fibre degradation and VFA profiles. It also shows promising effects on reducing CH4 production by suppressing H-2 production. Protein enzymatic hydrolysates from BSG using flavourzyme show potential application to high value-added bio-products.

Effect of alfalfa hay and starter feed supplementation on caecal microbiota and fermentation, growth, and health of yak calves

S. R. Wu et al.

Summary: Supplementation of starter feed and alfalfa hay significantly increased the growth performance of preweaning yaks. Starter feed supplementation led to increased inflammation-related indicators in calf plasma, while supplementation of both starter feed and alfalfa hay could reduce these indicators and promote the proliferation of beneficial bacteria in the caecum, improving immune homeostasis.

The physical form of starter (finely ground versus pelleted) and alfalfa hay (chopped versus pelleted) in Holstein dairy calves: Effects on growth performance, feeding behaviour, ruminal fermentation, and urinary purine derivatives

Masoud Molaei et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the effects of different physical forms of starter and alfalfa hay on growth performance, digestibility, ruminal fermentation, and urinary purine derivatives in Holstein calves. Pelleted starter led to higher starter intake, average daily gain, and final body weights compared to ground starter, while also increasing digestibility and purine derivative excretion. Pelleted alfalfa hay was associated with lower fibre digestibility and reduced microbial growth in the rumen compared to chopped alfalfa hay.

Assessing the Response of Ruminal Bacterial and Fungal Microbiota to Whole-Rumen Contents Exchange in Dairy Cows

Madison S. Cox et al.

Summary: By exchanging rumen microbiota between lactating Holstein dairy cows, it was found that the host efficiency was correlated with the rumen bacterial community, while ruminal fungi may not play as significant a role in milk production efficiency as previously thought. Further research is needed to better understand the specific functional roles of rumen microbial community members in modulating MPE.

Rumen Fermentation, Digestive Enzyme Activity, and Bacteria Composition between Pre-Weaning and Post-Weaning Dairy Calves

Yangyi Hao et al.

Summary: Weaning is crucial for young ruminants, as it causes significant changes in rumen function, bacterial composition, and enzyme activity. Post-weaning calves showed a more complex rumen bacteria network, higher fermentation products, and microbial protein content, but lower digestive enzyme activity compared to pre-weaning calves. These findings highlight the importance of weaning on rumen function and provide valuable insights for calf feeding management.

Effects of different forage to concentrate ratios on performance, plasma metabolites, and feeding behaviour of weaned dairy calves from 70 to 120 days of age

Abbas Karami et al.

Summary: This study indicated that feeding diets with a 20:80 forage to concentrate ratio enhanced feed intake, growth performance, and some skeletal growth parameters in the post-weaning period, as well as increasing lying behavior and decreasing rumination behavior for weaned calves.
