Hello,
I plan to purchase 5 HF cows which are of high pedigree which gives 20 litres of milk...kindly suggest me some feeding principles....I grow my own green fodder.....apart from that would be the feed maintainance of the cow
 

Hi use the following thumb rule

Stage of lactation Quantity of green grass to be give (kg) for animal weighing Concentrate ( kg)

250 kg 300 kg 350 kg
Dry cow 25 kg 30 kg 35 kg For non-pregnant cows no concentrate is required.
Pregnant cows should be fed additional quantity of 1.5 kg of concentrate from
7th month of gestation
In case of dry cow, allowance up to 1 kg concentrate can be given if the
condition of cow is poor or the fodder quality is inferior.

Milch cow 25 kg 30 kg 35 kg 1.0 kg for every 2.5 kg of milk of average 4% fat percentage, in case of buffalo
1.0 kg for every 2.0 kg of milk produced.

Hi

For milk yielding cow

If the body weight of the cow is 250 kg you have to give 25 kg green fodder + 1 kg concentrate feed for every 2.5 kg milk per day

If the body weight of the cow is 300 kg you have to give 30 kg green fodder + 1 kg concentrate feed for every 2.5 kg milk per day

If the body weight of the cow is 350 kg you have to give 35 kg green fodder + 1 kg concentrate feed for every 2.5 kg milk per day
