Effect of potato pulp silage on urea nitrogen content in serum and fecal nitrogen excretion by lactating cows grazed on artificial temperate pasture
High urea nitrogen contents of serum and milk are often shown in lactating cows grazed on artificial temperate pasture,because of high degradable protein intake from the pasture.The high urea nitrogen contents cause declines of protein and energy utilization efficiencies by the cows.Urea nitrogen contents of serum and milk in grazing cows fed potato pulp silage were lower than the cows fed rolled corn as energy supplements ( Hanada et al.,2005).The decreases of the urea nitrogen contents were probably due to decrease of non‐protein nitrogen absorption from lower intestine since ammonium nitrogen concentration in the rumen was not affected by the supplements.The objective of this trial was to investigate the effect of potato pulp silage on urea nitrogen contents in milk and serum,and fecal nitrogen output of grazing cows.
