Improving Dairy Cow Health through Optimizing Starch Nutrition: A Postmodern Perspective
Journal Title: International Journal of Veterinary Health Science & Research (IJVHSR) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
This perspective article delineates how optimizing starch nutrition in high-producing dairy ruminants can improve health and economics. The current reckless use of starch in commercial dairy diets must cease. Dairy ruminants do not need that much starch to be adequately profitable. Starch nutrition must be based on ruminant evolution and not exceeding their assimilative capacities.
