Abstract

This experiment was conducted to determine the effects of rumen-protected methionine (RPMet) on ruminal microbial protein (MCP) production, milk performance and nitrogen excretion of dairy cows. Forty Holstein lactating cows with similar age, body weight, parity, milk yield, milk composition and lactation period [(90±15) d] were randomly divided into 4 groups with 10 cows per group. The supplement level of RPMet in control and test groups 1, 2 and 3 was 0, 15, 25 and 35 g/(d·head), respectively. The pretest lasted for 15 d, and the test lasted for 60 d. The results showed as follows: 1) ruminal MCP production in test groups 1, 2 and 3 was extremely significantly increased by 13.10%, 20.45% and 16.23% compared with control group (P<0.01), respectively. 2) Milk yield in test groups 1, 2 and 3 was significantly increased by 8.12%, 13.32% and 10.32% compared with control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01), respectively; RPMet could significantly increase milk fat percentage and milk protein percentage (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and could significantly reduce milk somatic cell count (P<0.05 or P<0.01), especially test group 2 was the lowest. 3) Compared with control group, total nitrogen excretion in test groups was extremely significantly reduced (P<0.01), and was reduced by 8.55%, 17.49% and 13.25% in test groups 1, 2 and 3, respectively. It can be seen that the addition of RPMet to diets can significantly increase ruminal MCP production, decrease nitrogen excretion, and improve the performance of dairy cows under the present experimental conditions. The optimal dosage of RPMet was 25 g/(d·head).
