Abstract

The level of structural carbohydrates in feed and diets has a significant effect on the dry matter intake of ruminants. The article presents the results of the work on studying the effect of different contents of neutral detergent and acid detergent fiber in the diet of cows during the first phase of lactation on feed intake, nutrient utilization and physiological state. Studies have revealed that the NDF content of 32-33% and ADF content of 21-22% provides an increase in feed intake, digestibility and nutrient utilization.
