The antibiotic Actaplanin is a complex of glycopeptide compounds produced by Actinoplanes missourrensis. When included in feed as a performance enhancer it has been shown to increase milk production of dairy cows (McGuffey et al. 1983). Actaplanin is associated with reduced proportions of acetate and increased proportions of propionate in rumen fluid and a depression in milk fat proportion may result (Clapperton et al. 1987). The aim of the trial reported here was to monitor the effects of feeding 960 mg Actaplanin/head/d to dairy cows throughout two successive lactations.

Giving sakura block plus that contain katuk leaf and turmeric flour are expected to increase the production of milk from dairy cow in Sumber Mulya livestock group. Community service activities are carried out through several stages: socialization, training, demonstration plots, and field tests. Socialization aims to provide an understanding of the purpose and objectives of the activity. The training has several objectives, namely the introduction of sakura block plus supplements, understanding the benefits of sakura block plus supplements for dairy cattle, materials and equipment used, and practices. Making sakura block plus begins with weighing ingredients, then mixed them until blended. Then, heat the brown sugar that has been mixed with 20% water. After that, mix the ingredients with brown sugar. Next, sakura block plus is pressed by presses tool. The last stage is wrapping it using plastic wrap. The demonstration plot and field test were conducted for three months and using three dairy cattle. The forage consumption of dairy cows used in demonstration plots ranges from 40-45 kg/head/day. Milk production in Sumber Mulya livestock group is 10.28 liters/head/day. The use of sakura blok can increase milk production 2 until 3 liters/head/day. The average milk production after using sakura block plus can reach 13 liters/head/day.Keywords: katuk leaf; livestock group; milk; suplement.

ABSTRACT This study aims to determine the effect of the addition of baking soda as a supplement of dairy cattle feed on blood sugar, lactose, and milk production. This study used the dairy cow FH lactation of the 2nd lactation period of 5th month lactation and 6th lactation of 12 with 2-3 years old. Dairy cow FH lactation has a weight of 389.17 ± 27 kg. The treatment used was the addition of baking soda with the level of 0.8% and 1.0%. This study used a ration consisting of soybean meal, corn, brand, meat bone meal, lactoplus and forage grass uganda feed. This study used a complete randomized design consisting of 3 replication and 4 treatments. The data obtained were analyzed using variance analysis and F test at 5% level. The results showed that the addition of baking soda as supplement had no significant effect on blood sugar, lactose, and milk (P> 0,05), but it can increase milk production without supplementation (T0). The conclusion of this research is that the addition of baking soda at the level of 0.8 and 1.0% has no significant effect on blood sugar, lactose, and cow milk production. Keywords: Baking soda,blood sugar,lactose and production of diary milk

Dietary intake of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) has been recognized as having potential positive effects on human health (Lock and Bauman, 2004). Furthermore, alteration of the fatty acid (FA) composition of milk through targeted manipulation of dairy cow diets can be achieved (Dewhurst et al., 2006). Although breed effects on the FA composition of milk have previously been reported (Kelsey et al., 2003), most work to-date has been conducted under high input TMR based systems. Furthermore, little is known on the effects of heterosis on concentrations of FA in milk. The objective of this study was to examine whether differences in milk FA concentration exist between two contrasting breeds of dairy cow and their F1 hybrid managed under a grazing based production system.

<p>The objective of this study was to characterize the dairy-farming production system in Iporá and adjacent municipalities. In the present work 257 interviews were conducted from April to November 2013 in several locations. Mean milk production per farm was 207.9 liters/day and dairy cow yield was 7.8 liters/day. The indicators of pasture degradation was high (n=111/63.8%). Natural breeding was more frequent (n=155/82.4%) than artificial insemination (n=33/17.6%). Milking cows manually was more frequent (n=146/82.9%) than mechanical milking (n=30/17.1%). The most predominant milking construction was the roofless shed with packed earth floor (n=98/63.2%). Milk quality may be reduced due to certain procedures adopted during milking (48 herdsmen dry the saliva of the calf on the teat surface with the cow tail, 63 herdsmen remove the saliva of the calf on the teat surface by hand and dry it on the cow coat, and 67 herdsmen remove the saliva of the calf on the teat surface by hand and dry it on their pants). Vaccination against leptospirosis, bovine viral diarrhea, infectious bovine rhinotracheitis and neosporosis was low (n=26, 24, 20 and 7, respectively). The dairy-farming production system in Iporá and surroundings needs improvements to increase milk production and create opportunities for rural development.</p><p align="center"><strong><em>Uma perspectiva de desenvolvimento rural baseada no sistema de produção de leite em Iporá e adjacências, Estado de Goiás</em></strong></p><p><strong>Resumo: </strong>objetivou-se nesse estudo caracterizar o sistema de produção de leite em Iporá e municípios adjacentes. Realizaram-se 257 entrevistas entre abril e novembro de 2013 em diversos locais. A produção de leite por fazenda foi de 207,9 litros/dia e a produtividade/vaca foi de 7,8 litros/dia. Os indicadores de degradação de pastagens foram altos (n=111/63,8%). A monta natural foi mais frequente (n=155/82,4%) que a inseminação artificial (n=33/17,6%). A ordenha manual foi mais frequente (n=146/82,9%) que a mecânica (n=30/17,1%). O tipo de construção predominante foi o barracão descoberto com piso de chão batido (n=98/63,2%). A qualidade do leite pode ser reduzida devido a certos procedimentos adotados durante a ordenha (48 ordenhadores secam a saliva do bezerro na superfície do teto com o rabo da vaca, 63 ordenhadores removem a saliva do bezerro na superfície do teto com a mão e a seca no pelo da vaca, e 67 ordenhadores removem a saliva do bezerro na superfície do teto com a mão e a seca na calça). A vacinação contra leptospirose, diarreia viral bovina, rinotraqueíte infecciosa bovina e neosporose foi baixa (n= 26, 24, 20 e 7, respectivamente). O sistema de produção em Iporá e municípios adjacentes necessita de melhorias para aumento na produção de leite e oportunidades de desenvolvimento rural.</p><p> </p>

Abstract Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) could induce milk fat depression via regulating the body and blood fat metabolism. However, it is not completely clear how LPS might regulate triglyceride synthesis in dairy cow mammary epithelial cells (DCMECs). DCMECs were isolated and purified from dairy cow mammary tissue and treated with LPS. The level of triglyceride synthesis, the expression and activity of the liver X receptor α (LXRα), enzymes related to de novo fatty acid synthesis, and the expression of the fatty acid transporters were investigated. We found that LPS decreased the level of triglyceride synthesis via a down-regulation of the transcription, translation, and nuclear translocation level of the LXRα. The results also indicated that the transcription level of the LXRα target genes, sterol regulatory element binding protein 1 (SREBP1), fatty acid synthetase (FAS), acetyl-CoA carboxylase-1 (ACC1), were significantly down-regulated in DCMECs after LPS treatment. Our data may provide new insight into the mechanisms of milk fat depression caused by LPS.
