Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of supplemental different levels of extruded full-fat soybean (ESB) on the rumen fermentation, digestion and metabolism and blood parameters of early lactation dairy cows, and to judge the application effect of ESB on alleviating the negative energy balance of dairy cows. Four ruminally cannulated early lactating Holstein cows with the similar body weight, body condition score and age of lactation were assigned to 4 dietary treatments in a 4×4 Latin square design. Dietary treatments consisted of supplementing ESB at different levels[0 (control), 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 kg/d]. The results showed as follows:with the increase of ESB supplementation level, milk yield (P=0.070) and energy correcting milk yield (P=0.068) had a tendency to increase, and milk fat rate had a tendency to decrease (P=0.081), but non-fat solid matter (SNF) and milk urea nitrogen contents, milk protein, lactose and SNF production and fat/protein were significantly increased (P<0.05). Rumen pH tended to decrease (P=0.062), and pH was lower 6.2 when ESB supplemental levels were 2.0 and 3.0 kg/d, but ruminal ammoniacal nitrogen (NH3-N), propionate, valerate and isovalerate contents increased significantly (P<0.05); when the addition ESB was 2.0 kg/d, acetate/propionate was significantly lower compared with control group (P<0.05); apparent digestibility of crude protein (CP) and ether extract (EE) increased significantly (P<0.05), and that of dry matter (DM) tended to increase (P=0.061); total nitrogen excretion, ratio of urinary nitrogen to total nitrogen intake and nitrogen retention increased significantly (P<0.05), but the ratio of fecal nitrogen to total nitrogen intake decreased significantly (P<0.05), while the ratio of urea nitrogen to total urinary nitrogen tended to decrease (P=0.063); plasma urea nitrogen content increased significantly (P<0.05), and when the addition ESB level was 2.0 kg/d, plasma total bilirubin content tended to decrease (P=0.072). Therefore, it's concluded that under this experimental condition, supplementation of ESB at 1.0 to 2.0 kg/d to dairy cows in early lactation is beneficial to alleviate the negative energy balance and improve performance.
