Abstract

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of different protein source combinations in milk replacer on growth performance, energy and nitrogen metabolism of sucking calves. In this experiment, sixty-four newborn Holstein calves were randomly assigned to one of four groups with 16 calves per group, which were fed with milk replacer whose proteins contained 30% milk protein (MP) and 70% vegetable protein. Vegetable proteins were soybean protein isolate (SP), wheat hydrolyzed protein (WP) and rice protein isolate (RP), respectively. Calves in different groups were fed four replacers, which were as follows:group A, 30%MP+70%SP; group B, 30%MP+40%SP+10%WP+20%RP; group C, 30%MP+10%SP+40%WP+20%RP; group D, 30%MP+10%SP+20%WP+40%RP. The trial lasted for 63 days. The results showed as follows:1) at 14 to 63 days of age, calves' body weight and average daily gain of group B were significantly higher than those of group A (P<0.05). However, there were no significant effects on starter intake, dry matter intake and feed conversion ratio among all groups (P>0.05). 2) At 14 to 63 days of age, calves' hip width, heart girth and body length were not significant difference among all groups (P>0.05), but calves' wither height and hip height of group B were significantly higher than those of group A (P<0.05). 3) At 28 days of age, calves' gross energy digestibility, gross energy metabolic rate and digestible energy metabolic rate of group C were significantly lower than those of groups A and B (P<0.05). The differences in fecal nitrogen and nitrogen digestibility among all groups were significant (P<0.05), but the difference in nitrogen retained rate was not significant (P>0.05). At 56 days of age, the differences of energy and nitrogen metabolism among all groups were not significant (P>0.05). 4) At 28 to 56 days of age, the growth hormone (GH) level in serum of groups B, C and D was higher than that of group A, and the difference was significant between groups D and A (P<0.05); the insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) level in serum of groups B, C and D was significantly higher than that of group A (P<0.05). In summary, feeding the compound vegetable protein milk replacer can affect the growth performance and nitrogen metabolism of the sucking calves, and the B group has the best feeding effect.
