  1. 1. Foderåtgång och tillväxt hos mjölkraskvigor utfodrade med bioraffinerad presskaka från gräs/klöverensilage

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Alma Hagskär; [2022]
    Keywords : ungdjur; ensilage; bioraffinerad presskaka; konsumtion; tillväxt; hull;

    Abstract : Bioraffinering är en process där ensilage eller grönmassa, med hjälp av en skruvpress, delas upp i en presskaka och en pressjuice. Presskakan kan utfodras till idisslare och pressjuicen kan utfodras till grisar, bioraffinering möjliggör därför utfodring av vall till grisar i större utsträckning och ger på så vis vallen ett bredare användningsområde.

  5. 4. The digesta passage rate among dairy cows with different abilities to consume large quantities of roughage : its impact on the milk production, and the reliability of the chemical fibre marker

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Abstract : The objectives of the present master thesis were to investigate the passage rate among lactating Holstein and Swedish red dairy cows to investigate the hypotheses of: 1) The cows’ individual total mean retention time (TMRT) has a negative relationship to the cows’ individual forage intake capacity. 2) A reduced TMRT contributes to a reduced feed efficiency, but a higher milk yield.

I dagens hästhållningssystem utfodras hästar ofta på ett sätt som ger dem begränsade möjligheter att utföra sitt naturliga födosöksbeteende. En utfodringsstrategi där hästen kan äta under lång tid är fri tillgång på vallfoder. READ MORE
