What is the feeding cost of HF/Jersey cow of 20lts yield per day including Green, dry fodder and concentrates?
How much did a single cow eat per day? What are the items (Food items) did I need to provide to it from morning to evening.
Someone please list down the items.
Thanks & Regards
Vishal Goel
Answer to Q 1 – A 500 kg HF cow yielding 20 litres per day will require around 20 kg of green fodder (may be maize fodder), 2 kg of dry fodder, 9 kg of cattle feed (BIS type I) and 150 gm. of mineral mixture.
Cost of individual feed items may vary from region to region, however, for your understanding we have assumed these cost as follows:
-------
Answer to Q 2: A cow would generally consume dry matter @ 3-4 percent of its body weight. A 400 kg cow will require 12 to 16 kg of dry matter in a day.
Various feed items offered to dairy animals are green fodder, grasses, straws, brans, chunnis, oil cakes, grains, hay, silage, leaves, etc.
Feed items need to be provided morning and evening, preferably thrice a day. Fresh drinking water ad lib is equally important.
What will be the feeding cost of murrah buffalo?
To calculate feeding cost of Murrah buffalo following assumptions are used.
Body weight: 550 kg, Milk yield: 8 litre/day, Milk fat: 7.0%, Dry Matter intake: 2.5-3.5% of body weight.
To fulfil nutrient requirement of Murrah buffalo (considering above assumptions) about 6.2 kg cattle feed (BIS-I), 20.5 kg maize fodder, 4.5 kg wheat straw and 120 gm mineral mixture will be sufficient. This ration will provide about 13.8 kg of dry matter.
Cost breakup of ration is mentioned below.
1. Cost of cattle feed (BIS-I)/ concentrate mixture (6.2 kg x Rs 20/kg) = Rs 124
2. Cost of green fodder e.g. maize fodder (20.5 kg x Rs 1.5/kg) = Rs 30.75
3. Cost of dry fodder e.g. wheat straw (4.5 kg x Rs 5/kg) = Rs 22.5
4. Cost of mineral mixture (120 gm x Rs 60/kg) = Rs 7.2
Therefore total feeding cost will be Rs 184 per day.
Please note that cost of feeds and fodders will vary depending on season and region.

i just want to know that how much economic loss will occur if one heat or one estrus cycle missed in buffalo dairy farm?
1. Each missed heat is a loss of at least 21 days of milk and cost of maintenance of animal for 21 days.
2. Total loss will be equivalent to cost of 21 days of feeding plus cost of lost milk.
what is the TMR ?
how made TMR ?
sir please give me idea how make on my farm TMR ?
Total mixed ration (TMR) is a way of feeding dairy animals to provide proper and balanced nutrients as per their requirement.
Normally dairy animals are offered dry roughages, green roughages, cattle feed, grains, cakes, brans, etc. and they are offered separately or only one or two items are mixed together.
When all feed items offered to animals are mixed together and offered to animal it is called "Total Mixed Ration". In this dry and green roughages needs to be chopped first and then mixed with concentrate(s) to make TMR.
TMR is wholesome and complete feed for the dairy animals. TMR should be given three to four times a day.
What is the process of oil cack bypass protin plase tell me we have some mterial but i don't understand this formula please how home made oil cack by pass protin So if I understand the venture to communicate in Hindi is Possible ?
Rape seed oil cake procured from a local market was ground to pass 1.0 mm sieve size and subjected to crude protein (CP) estimation by Kjeldahl’s technique. Formaldehyde treatment of rape seed oil cake was conducted by spraying 1.2 g of formaldehyde per 100 g crude protein or 11 ml of 40% formaldehyde solution per 100 g cake. The treatment was commenced in the feed mill and the formalin was poured over the crushed cake from the molasses tank. The treated cake samples were mixed thoroughly and stored in tightly sealed plastic bags for 7 days at room temperature (25°C) to form protected protein. The protein was then tested for degree of protection and effective protein degradability using nylon bag technique
1 Step. ?
2 Step. ? ............ please tell me
Manufacturing of bypass protein meal/ cake involves usages of chemical(s) and it has to be done in commercial setup by using specific machinery designed for the same. Hence, it is not recommended to use this at home.

There are two types of Shed which are in fashion now a days, one is Tail-to-Tail and Another one is Head-to-Head. Most Commonly and recommended design is Head-to-Head Arrangement for better sanitation.
following are the specifications for Head-to-Head Arrangement.
Closed Area= 8ft x 4ft per cattle
Manger(Feeding Area)= 4ft x 2ft per cattle.

Dear Sir,
Quantity of 300 or 500 g per litre of milk varies from farm to farm and are based on their green fodder, dry fodder and concentrates composition.
If one is having compound cattle feed type II (having 20 % crude protein), giving 400 g cattle feed per litre of milk for cows would be sufficient.
hi,
I have 15 cows, the cows who gives 20 ltr/day milk are gives such contity is for 2 months or 3 months only. what shuld I do to maintain production long time. i gives them one time dry fodder about 5 kg, napier grass. ane one time green fodder about 20 kg, yasvant grass or multicrop napier grass. 5 kg/time total of consantration feed and cottn seed cake, maize flour, tuvar chuni, babul chuni, two time. mineral mixture 100 grams/time. water is full.
For maintaining milk yield and to avoid negative energy balance you may consider to give Bypass Fat @ 150 g per day to your lactating cows.
This need to be given during last month of the pregnancy and three months after calving.

Additionally please give Soda bi carb (buffer/ baking soda) @ 50 g per day as you are giving high concentrate (10 kg).
Hello there,
I am currently running a dairy farm which consists of 8 HF cows and 3 Murraha Buffalos. I Bought the HF cows 2nd Lactation of 22 Lits/Day (Verified the milk before buying) but at my dairy farm I am unable to obtain such figures. Currently I am gaining around 12lits/day and below, and none of the cow crossed 17 Lits/day ever and some of them are not even touching 10lits/day. My Production cost is reaching about Rs.260/Animal/Day, leaving very less profit this is not what I was planning. I feed them following diet:
Maze 30%
Soya DOC 20%
Toor Chunni 20%
Wheat Bran (Chokar) 20%
Sunflower Cake
Mineral Mixture 2.5 %
Salt 2 %
I carry regular vaccination. At my farm location the temperature sometimes reaches 40˚C but I have installed foggers to keep atmosphere under control. I was planning to expand cows up to 40 animals next month but I need to resolve this first. Please help on this issue.
Dear Sir,
You are requested to please provide the prices of feed items and also mention if any additional feed items is available for consideration.
What is the quantity of dry straw, green fodder offered to animals along with prices so that we can formulate a ration based on inputs.
You can also download “Pashu poshan” application from Google play store.
Maize is supposed to be at 60% & the wheat bran at 25%. Maize is the key ingredient for milk production. The experts may comment !!
In a home-made concentrate following could be the ratio:
Maize grain – 35 to 40 per cent
Wheat bran – 30 per cent
& Oil cakes – 30 per cent
Mineral mixture – 1 to 2 per cent
Dear Sir
