Пути научно обоснованного решения вопросов организации кормления

Abstract

The article considers the main directions, current problems and ways of solving them in the scientifically grounded organization of feeding of farm animals. In the course of the study, the issues of assessing the nutritional value of feeds, formulating rations with regard to the physiological state of animals, laboratory analysis of feed quality, increasing the digestibility of nutrients, reducing feed costs and evaluating the economic efficiency of feeding were systematized. On the basis of international scientific experience, the possibilities of optimizing feeding, rational use of local feed resources and digital record-keeping are described. Two hypothetical production scenarios for a herd of 100 dairy cows were compared, and the effect of milk productivity and feed costs on the economic result was assessed. The calculations are based not on the data of a specific farm but on assumptions adopted in advance. In addition, a design of an experimental study is proposed for testing feeding technologies under production conditions.
