Introduction to CNCPS v7 to more cost effectively AA Balance

Thu, 16 Nov 2023 09:36:37 GMT

Soon – perhaps before the end of 2023 – we will see the release of CNCPS version 7. This much anticipated update will include many enhancements which should enable dairy producers and their nutritionists to formulate better diets that will improve dairy productivity and profitability. This webinar will discuss CNCPS and the update to version 7 with Dr. Mike Van Amburgh and Dr. Andrew LaPierre from Cornell University. They both have been actively working to complete this project, and together they have a great understanding of both the long-term “big picture” as well as the in-depth understanding of the fine details of the model. In this webinar they will share their insights and perspectives on the changes to the CNCPS model, the potential impact these updates will have, and some thoughts on CNCPS moving forward.

Enhance reproductive efficiency, progeny performance and herd dynamics with...

Tue, 31 Oct 2023 16:43:28 GMT

Dr. Phil Cardoso, University of Illinois, presents webinar for the Dairy Cattle Reproduction Council (DCRC).

Feeding dairy cows during the transition period to meet their nutritional requirements is crucial to the profitability of dairy farmers.

Every year, researchers worldwide help dairy farmers, veterinarians, and nutritionists better understand the biological mechanisms behind how cows utilize and effectively convert feed into milk.

Nutritional strategies and goals for a successful transition period, such as for a cow to calve, not get sick, milk well, and get pregnant again in a timely fashion was part of the discussion. The correct diet will meet the cow’s nutritional requirements and be designed so that cows get just what they need; not more, not less.

Feeding rumen protected methionine in an amino-acid-balanced ration during the transition period resulted in improved uterine immune function through improved glandular morphology, increased neutrophil infiltration in bovine endometrial tissue, improved oocyte quality, and calf intake.

In conclusion, the transition program’s impacts should be evaluated holistically, considering disease occurrence, productivity, and fertility since it dramatically impacts the herd dynamics.

Profound effects on dairy herd sustainability

Wed, 11 Oct 2023 17:24:39 GMT

As the dairy industry actively works to reduce its contribution to climate change, a number of avenues are being pursued. While methane mitigation is grabbing the headlines today, one very important avenue is flying under the radar: improving the efficiency of use of dietary nitrogen in ruminant rations. The end goal is to reduce nitrogen excretion into the environment by:

· Reducing crude protein in the ration,

· Increasing the efficiency of use of the N in CP, and

· Minimizing the nitrogen excreted (converted to nitrous oxide) without impacting dairy performance and profitability.

This webinar focuses on:

· The magnitude and positive consequences of lowering dietary crude protein on improving the efficiency of N utilization,

· The limits to reducing the CP content of rations without hurting performance,

· The opportunity of amino acid balancing diets to not only increase performance but simultaneously further lower dietary CP levels,

· What analytical and feed management practices will be needed to dial in low-protein AA balanced diets that will ensure high performance is maintained,

· How the art of ration formulation may change as the industry is encouraged to take into account the origin of the ingredients in rations,

· Interest in eventually formulating rations not only on classical nutrients but also on carbon footprint specifications, and

· The KPIs to best capture the positive carbon footprint effects of AA balancing on lifetime performance. This would integrate heifer rearing costs, time to first calving, transition cow health and reproduction success, lower involuntary culling and ultimately cows having more lactations in the herd.

Much is to be gained by managing all N inputs on dairy farms efficiently. The gains from lowering CP levels in tandem with AA balancing are at least as important as the potential gains from methane mitigation strategies and luckily will work together to achieve sustainable goals.

Advantages on involuntary culling and herd structure dynamics

Fri, 25 Aug 2023 08:56:15 GMT

The objective of this webinar is to create awareness of how different events that happen throughout the lactation cycle impact the herd’s make-up and affect the overall economics of the dairy. Estimating the long-term effects of non-contemporary events is not an easy task considering all the moving parts happening daily at any given dairy. This is why Dr. Cabrera has developed multiple tools to link events and, via detailed calculations, determine the short- and long-term consequences, from the milk production and herd make-up to ultimately estimate the economics of implementing different management practices or using different nutritional approaches.

In this webinar, Dr. Cabrera explains how some of the simulation models were created. Then we introduce a tool developed by our technical team with Dr. Cabrera to help the end user visualize the full economic impact, taking into consideration changes in dry matter intake, milk volume and composition, health and reproduction when implementing strategies to feed diets that are amino acid balanced.

CNCPS v7: New approach for precision dairy formulation - Mike Van Amburgh

Mon, 10 Jul 2023 14:59:18 GMT

The Wine & Cheese recording during ADSA Annual Meeting 2023, where Mike Van Amburgh discussed CNCPS v7 a new approach for precision dairy formulation.

Strategic use of methionine to impact reproduction of the dairy cow

Wed, 17 May 2023 11:58:50 GMT

This webinar links nutrition with dairy health and reproduction. Health, particularly after calving, impacts reproductive outcomes two-to-four months later. Poor health and reproductive performance can each lead to undesirable cullings.

The challenge is to connect these two maladies. They don’t occur at the same time, so few people make the connection between them. During the webinar, the speakers give clear explanations of how the nutrition after calving is connected to reproductive problems and higher culling rates, and provide examples of how nutrition, specifically the essential nutrient methionine, helps cows overcome these stresses.

Ensure a good start to the lactation cycle of the dairy cow

Mon, 24 Apr 2023 11:00:07 GMT

This webinar gives you an appreciation for the science behind the indexes (LFI, LAI, PIRI) used to gauge the liver health of cows during the transition period. The discussion includes how to use and interpret the indexes, and their importance in guiding management practices. The conversation closes with why it is important to assure that the pre-fresh diet contains enough methionine to help cows cope with postpartum challenges.
To summarize, we discuss the importance of the transition phase to the whole lactation cycle, what areas to work on to lower unwanted cullings, and the tools we have to assess the challenges cows experience during the peripartum period.

History of AA balancing and solutions for improved milk and components

Wed, 29 Mar 2023 09:02:49 GMT

This webinar will give you an appreciation for the history of the science behind amino acid (AA) balancing, the amino acids of most importance, and what improvements to expect in milk yield, fat yield and protein yield when effectively achieving target levels of lysine and methionine.
Dr. Chuck Schwab’s Ph.D. work was the catalyst for the development of AA balancing as we know it today. The first milestone to the practical implementation of AA balancing was the publication of the integrated INRA AA formulation system in 1993.
Initially AA balancing was only thought to have an effect on milk protein. Today a recent summation of 25 production trials in which rations were AA balanced using Adisseo rumen protection technologies shows clearly that AA balancing affects positively milk fat synthesis as well as milk protein.
The trial results show an increase of 1.7 kg/day in energy corrected milk (ECM), +60 g/day in milk protein and +80 g/day in milk fat, corresponding to average increases of +0.13% and +0.16% in protein and fat content respectively. Trial results have been replicated in commercial dairy farms, but formulation practices will determine how successful the results of AA balancing will be.

The Contrasting Functions of Nutrition on Reproduction in Dairy Cows

Thu, 08 Dec 2022 10:39:52 GMT

With Milo Wiltbank, Professor of Animal and Dairy Sciences and Endocrinology–Reproductive Physiology, University of Wisconsin, USA

For the session's questions and answers, click here.

Nutrition can alter reproduction in lactating dairy cows, and the varied ways in which this occurs are discussed. Six different well-studied pathways are presented that can improve fertility and reduce pregnancy loss in dairy herds with examples provided. Attaining a high fertility cycle is emphasized.

Learn:

• How deficiencies in vitamin E near the end of pregnancy can alter reproduction in the subsequent lactation.

• How high milk production can alter reproductive traits (double ovulation, twinning, expression of heats, pregnancies per AI) and how programs like Double Ovsynch can overcome these effects.

• How high body condition score loss during the early postpartum period can reduce pregnancies per AI and how herds attain the high fertility cycle.

• The interaction of feeding rumen-protected methionine with health disorders on time to pregnancy.

Hydroxy-Methionine oligomers are efficiently utilized by broiler to sustain...

Mon, 10 Oct 2022 16:48:43 GMT

Presented by Yves Mercier, PhD at WPC

OH-methionine contains up to 25% as oligomers. Higher levels of oligomers have been obtained through vacuum treatment (50, 75 and 84%). When comparing growth performance, as bodyweight gain and feed conversion ratio, between DL-methionine, standard OH-methionine, or oligomer-enriched OH -methionine, all products gave the same performance even with the highest level of 84% oligomers.
These results confirm that the presence of oligomers is not a limiting factor in the absorption and metabolic use of OH-methionine.

Roundtable on Feedase concept, WPC 2022

Mon, 08 Aug 2022 17:40:02 GMT

Speakers: Rick KLEYN, Marcio CECCANTINI and Pierre-André GERAERT

Enzymes are specific to substrates, present in the different raw materials of the feed. All components of the feed are interacting and when developing the value of an enzyme it's important to consider the total level of antinututritional substrates within the feed as well as their interaction. The supplementary enzymes are complementary and work as a whole on the feed, that is the Feedase concept.

Considering such an approach will help to optimize the benefits of enzymes in feed formulation.
