Hi
For 100 kg concentrate formulation:-
Sr.No.
Ingradients Proportion
1. Barly/Chuni 30%
2. Crushed Maize/Jowar/Bajara 35%
3. a) Sunflower cake (7%) + b)Cotton seed cake (20%) + c) Groundnut cake (8%) 35%
4. Common Salt 1 kg
5. Chelated mineral mixture(Agrimin forte/Bestamin gold /any suitable mineral mixture consulting to local expert veterinarian) 1 kg
6. Shell grit 1 kg
For milking buffaloes, you may give 500 gms of formulated concentrate per 1 litre of milk in buffaloes & for cows 350 gms per litre of milk..Also it is better to add 20 gms of probiotics powder per animal to increase milk production & fat % age in buffaloes.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.
