Abstract
Our objective was to quantify the contribution of body weight (BW) change to the overall response of lactating dairy cows to a shortage of dietary protein. Lactating Holstein cows (n = 166; 92 primiparous, 74 multiparous) with initial milk yield of 41 ± 10 kg/d were fed high and low-protein diets in 7 blocks. Blocks were repeated in the same crossover design with periods of 28 to 35 d. Production of 69 of the 166 cows (42 primiparous, 27...
