Historically, the main reason for fat supplements to be fed to dairy cows was for increased energy in the diet to support milk and component production. Fast forward to present day, and just as the demands of dairy cow's production and reproduction performance have soared, so has the need for fatty acids to be fed in balance. Follow along in this Progressive Dairy feature from Renee Smith, as she shares the main fatty acids found in dairy diets and the signals they are sending, beyond being utilized for energy. https://lnkd.in/eD7JXNfX

What matters more when choosing a fat supplement…the fatty acid profile or the form (ca salt vs. prill) of the product? In this study recap, Michigan State Graduate Student, Alycia Bales, takes us through her research with a head-to-head comparison of these three variations: 1) 70:20 Palmitic to Oleic blend of a prill and Ca salt, 2) 70:20 Palmitic to Oleic Ca Salt, and 3) a traditional Ca Salt (50:35 Palmitic to Oleic). https://lnkd.in/gXj6utxw
