摘要:
Dietary compositions for ingestion by ruminants and methods for feeding the dietary compositions to ruminants are disclosed. The dietary compositions may include ruminant feed products having at least one saturated fatty acid component including at least about 90% of a palmitic acid compound. The ruminant feed product may be fed to the ruminant according to a feed program that is based on physical characteristics and/or a time period associated with the ruminant. For example, an amount of the ruminant feed product fed to the ruminant may be based on the calving cycle and/or lactation cycle of the ruminant and one of a body weight or a milk yield of the ruminant. Ingestion of the ruminant feed product by a ruminant according to the feed program may increase the milk yield and/or the milk fat content of milk produced by the ruminant.
