For 100 kg concentrate formulation:-

Sr.No. Ingradients Proportion For 100 kg

1. Barly/Chuni 30% 30kg
2. Crushed Maize/Jowar/Bajara 35% 35kg

6. Shell grit 1 kg 1 kg
7. Probiotic powder 20 gms per animal

• For milking buffaloes, you may give 500 gms of formulated concentrate per 1
litre of milk in buffaloes & 350 gms per litre of milk for cows.

• Also it is better to add 20 gms of probiotics powder per animal to increase milk production & fat % age in buffaloes.Probiotic powder should be soaked with part of concentrate & keep overnight then add in concentrate feed while milking the animals.

• Green fodder requirement for cow and buffalo is 10% of its body weight eg.400 kgs buffalo or cow requires 40kg of green fodder (in which 30 kgs of cereals as Hybrid napier/maize/jowar and 10 kgs of pulses like Lucerne/cowpea or Stlyosanthes).

• Dry fodder requirement is 5-6 kg per day.

This kind of formulation is safe in pregnancy.

You may also take training on dairy farming for get rid of losses in dairy farming by new scientific knowledge & practice. You may also consult to local veterinarian (B.V.Sc & A.H. Or M.V.Sc) first regarding selection cattle breed or quality animals & their management,feed formulation etc.

Hello Mr.Rajesh,

Out of curiosity,

We are currently working on project on optimizing cattle feed in tamilnadu animal husbandry university and have researched information which is proved successful that 400kgs buffalo's feed requirement when yeilding approx 10 ltrs of day is as follows

Green fodder - 10.7-11 kgs
Mixed hay (dry fodder) - 5.4-6 kgs
concentrate feed - 4.9-5.2 kgs.

We have also found one of the reason for many dairy farms lower profit margin is due to over or excess feeding animals which result in the cost and also it turns the animal a bit obese which affects their yeilding performance and many other factors.

For the simple fact cows I have a friend of mine whoes dad is a dairy scientis in germany and say their cows yeild 60-70 ltrs per day and they don't feed 30-40 kgs of green fodder and 10 kgs of dry fodder however they do manitain the very strict ration and do not compromise on protein based concentrate feed which is kept at 450-550 gms/ltr of milk.

Since I always feel that there is always something to learn from another person i would appreciate on why we calculate the 10% of body weight for green fodder.

Thanks,
Antony

Green fodder - 10.7 - 11 kg to feed one cow per day...

Antony, According to your information, we have to give (550x70) 38.5 kg per day concentrate to one cow, which gives 70 liter milk?
