Chemical composition of milk as affected by feeding lactating cows vegetable and fruit market waste silage

Abstract: Chemical composition of Friesian milk as affected by using vegetables and fruits market waste (VFMW) in feeding lactating cows was tested over a period of 12 week. The use of VFMW in a silage form ( Treatment I ) :to replace 15 % of the control ration (ammonia -treated rice straw and concentrate) resulted in an increase in fat, lactose, protein, casein and whey protein content of milk. Non-protein Nand non-casein N were lower. In treatment (II), VMW(vegetable market waste) and EI-Mufeed was used to replace 15% of the control ration, whereas in treatment (II), VMW and ground yellow corn was used to replace 15% of the control ration. Results showed that treatment (II) gave the highest fat and -lactose content followed by treatment (I), whereas treatment (I) gave the highest protein and casein content followed by treatment (II). IIi all cases, the control milk samples had the lowest values of fat, protein, casein and whey protein content.
