ABSTRACT Increased demand of milk is higher along with the increasing number of population, but increased demand of milk is less offset by increased production of local dairy cow milk so that in fulfilling local milk need is still doing a lot of milk import. With the existing of milk demand, livestock farming development of dairy cows can be done in Jember Regency. One of dairy cow farming in Jember Regency is located in Kemuning Lor Village Arjasa District Jember Regency which is the independent farm. Partnership farm in Jember Regency is in Ajung Village Ajung District, Balung Lor Village Balung District and Rowotengah Village Sumberbaru District which are partnership farm with Galur Murni Cooperative. Both livestock businesses experience the same problem which is the lows of milk production so that causes the lows of income received by the farmer. Milk production can increase if the farmer can apply GDFP (Good Dairy Farming Practice) of good dairy cows. This research aimed to (1) find out GDFP implementation, (2) find out the income, and (3) find out cost use efficiency. This research showed that: (1) The level of GDFP implementation of partnership farm was higher than the level of GDFP implementation of the independent farm. (2) Both livestock businesses of partnership and independent farm in Jember Regency is mutual. The amount of income per tail of partnership dairy cows was IDR 8,895,762/year and the net income per tail of independent dairy cows was IDR 11,635,231/year, (3) The cost use efficiency on partnership and independent dairy farm businesses was all efficient. The efficiency value of the R/C ratio of partnership dairy farm business was 1.25 while the efficiency value of the R/C ratio of the independent dairy farm was 1.18.   Keywords: Dairy Cows, GDFP Implementation, Income, Efficiency of R/C Ratio

Dairy farming is the most significant part of cattle raising. During the previous several years the volume of milk production has been maintained at a stable level, while there came to fall in number of dairy cows and number of farms engaged in dairy farming. Although the farms that own just a few heads of dairy cows usually step out the milk production, there are still a small number of farms specialized in dairy farming. The main paper objective is to present the economic effects of investment in the construction and equipping of dairy farm adequate for raising of 12 dairy cows. Economic analysis was based on the use of static and dynamic methods for investment assessment. Besides, there is also conducted the analysis of investment under the risk conditions (use of the break-even analysis). According to gained results (e.g. Internal rate of return, 11.98%, positive value of the Net present value, Payback period shorter than 5 years) the investment implementation is economically justified.

Reproduction and milk production are the principal factors that are influencing dairy farm profitability. The dairy industry in Iran has changed dramatically in the last decade. The shift toward more productive cows and larger herds in Iran is associated with a decrease reproductive efficiency (Heravi Moussavi et al., 2004). Increased knowledge about the principal causes of reduced fertility is essential. The root cause of the declining fertility is probably a combination of a variety of physiological and management factors that have an additive effect on reproductive efficiency. Dairy cattle are inseminated and pregnancy is established while dairy cows are lactating. Based on the analyses of large datasets, there is clearly an antagonistic relationship between milk production and reproduction in dairy cattle (Lucy, 2001). It was shown that the hazard ratio for cumulative first 60-day milk yield and conception in high producer cows was 8 percent less than the others and also high milk yield was a risk factor for several reproductive disorders (Grohn and Rajala-Schultz, 2000). The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of first 60-day cumulative milk yield on days open in Iranian Holstein dairy cows.

The effects of high milk yields on the behaviour and welfare of the dairy cow are unclear. A high milk yield increases the need to consume sufficient fodder in an attempt to meet high nutrient demands. The failure to meet the demands may result in persistent hunger in the dairy cow having to modify her behaviour by employing various coping strategies. These modifications may help the cow overcome a state of hunger but at the expense of being unable to express other important behaviours. The objective of this study was therefore to determine whether the behaviour and welfare of the genetically high yielding dairy cow is being compromised by the increased nutritional demands of milk production, and to investigate the possibility that an increased amount of time spent in food-directed behaviours may have a detrimental effect on the time available to perform other important behaviours.

The complete replacement of soyabean meal by maize distillers grains (MDG) in dairy cow diets had no significant effects on milk production, rumen digestion or the supply of non-ammonia N to the duodenum (Sutton et al., 2000; Phipps et al., 2001). The present experiment was designed to extend this work by examining the response when barley (BDG) or wheat (WDG) distillers grains replaced soyabean meal.

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.

AbstractAn effective method for enhancing milk production efficiency in dairy cows is to increase milk yield and significant progress has been achieved through intense selection, assisted by the application of new reproductive techniques. However this increased milk yield has been accompanied by a slow but steady decline in dairy cow fertility. The two main reasons for this reducing level of fertility appear to be selection for increased milk yield and large herd sizes, although the affect of the introduction of Holstein genes needs to be investigated. In addition, other negative consequences such as an increase in the incidence of metabolic diseases and lameness have been observed. This has given rise to public concern that the high-yielding dairy cow may be under a state of metabolic stress during peak lactation and therefore the welfare and performance of other body functions are compromised.The reason for this decline in fertility is not well understood, although a nutritional influence on the initiation of oestrous cycles, follicular growth, oocyte quality and early embryonic development has been implicated. In early lactation dietary intake is unable to meet the demands of milk production and most cows enter a period of negative energy balance. Negative energy balance has a broadly similar effect to undernutrition leading to a mobilization of body reserves. Furthermore diets high in rumen degradable protein lead to an excess of rumen ammonia, which before it is converted to urea by the liver and excreted in the urine, may cause an alteration in the reproductive tract environment reducing embryo survival. Such major changes in the metabolic and endocrine systems can therefore influence fertility at a number of key points.Possible reproductive sites where inadequate nutrition may have detrimental effects include: (i) the hypothalamic/pituitary gland where gonadotropin release may be impaired; (ii) a direct effect on the ovaries, where both follicular growth patterns and corpus luteum function may be directly influenced; (iii) the quality of the oocyte prior to ovulation may be reduced and coupled with an inadequate uterine environment will result in reduced embryo survival and (iv) there may be effects on subsequent embryo development. The initiation of normal oestrous cycles post partum is usually delayed in dairy cows with a higher genetic merit for milk production, confirming that intense selection towards high milk yield can compromise reproductive function. In addition, the effects of increased milk yield may include changes in circulating GH and insulin concentrations, which in turn alter both insulin-like growth factor (IGF) and IGF binding protein production. Nutrition has recently been shown to have a direct effect at the level of both the ovaries and the uterus to alter the expression of these growth factors.In conclusion, further knowledge is required to determine how the metabolic changes associated with high milk output reduce fertility. Identification and understanding of the mechanisms involved and the key sites of action responsible for compromised reproductive function, will enable the identification of possible indices for future multiple-trait selection programmes.

Dairy cows in mid lactation were pen-fed ad libitum maize silage, ad libitum maize greenchop, or restricted maize greenchop. A cottonseed meal supplement was also fed at 20% forage maize DM. The maize greenchop was harvested daily over 5 weeks during February and March. Both forms of forage maize were fed to sheep in metabolism cages. Digestibility was always higher with maize silage. Digestibility of maize greenchop improved with time until 34-36% DM, after which it declined, this being associated with changes in structural carbohydrates in the crop. Cows fed maize silage produced more milk and gained less weight than cows fed both greenchop diets. In a concurrent field trial, cows grazed irrigated perennial pastures in late summer and were offered 7-8 kg DM/day of the silage or greenchop. Additional cows were allocated extra pasture with no supplement. Treatment differences in milk production and liveweight change were not significant. There were differences in rumen metabolism between diets in both pen-fed and grazed cows; rumen ammonia levels increased during the day in cows fed maize silage, but they decreased or remained constant when maize greenchop was fed. There was more maize grain in greenchop at physiological maturity than in silage, and this could have contributed to observed differences in performance and rumen metabolism. The low rumen ammonia levels, and the fact that forage maize was higher in energy than the pasture on offer, suggest that milk response would have improved with the inclusion of a rumen-degradable nitrogen source such as urea with the forage maize supplements.

Primary reasons for disposal of 26,651 dairy cows of the Ayrshire, Guernsey, Holstein and Jersey breeds were collected in Canadian Record of Performance herds from September, 1967 to August, 1968. Reproduction and low milk production were major causes of voluntary herd removals. The percentages culled annually for these problems ranged from 13.4 to 24.4% and from 15.5 to 28.3%, respectively. The Guernsey breed was highest (24.4%) in the percentage culled because of reproduction. The Holstein was lowest (15.5%) in the percentage culled because of low production, but highest (10.2%) in the percent removed because of udder problems. Disposal patterns changed with the lactation number of the cow. Young cows were culled more heavily for low production than their older herdmates. This was offset by increases in the percentages of older cows removed for reproduction, diseases and weaknesses in udders. No major monthly trends were observed in these data, although there was a statistically significant increase in summer sales for dairy purposes with a parallel decrease in beef sales.

Dairy cows is one of animal husbandry that produce milk.  In Indonesia, there is a gap between milk demand and its production that offers chance of animal husbandry business. Bogor is a city in West Java that has numbers of family relying their family’s livelihood on animal husbandry business. There are two dairy cow farmers groups that is still operating in Bogor, Kelompok Ternak Maju Terus (‘Maju Terus’ Group) and Kelompok Ternak Sumber Makmur (‘Sumber Makmur’ Group). The objectives of this research are to analyze the determinant factors of milk production and business performance in both farmer groups. The production function, income approach and R/C ratio analysis are used to obtain the research objectives. The result shows that determinant factors that statistically significant are the number of productive cows, the amount of feed both green feed and ‘waste’ feed, while concentrate is not significant. The farmer group performance of ‘Maju Terus’ is better than ‘Sumber Makmur’ where the R/C ratio is higher. The farmers should increase the number of dairy cow ownership, the amount of feed and ‘waste’ feed, therefore milk production of dairy cows will increase and improve the income of farmers.

Integrated fish farming is a system of producing fish in combination with other agricultural/livestock farming operations centered around the fish pond. The study was conducted in Kalong-Kapili NGO of Kamrup (Metro) district of Assam with the objectives of evaluating the cost and return aspects of fish cum pig and fish cum dairy farming systems and identifying the more profitable integration model which gives optimum utilization of given resources. A total of 44 farmers comprising of 24 fish cum pig farmers and 20 fish cum dairy farmers were randomly selected for data collection. Based on data collected, economic analysis of the integrated farming systems were done by using various cost and return concepts. Total operational cost (Cost C) in fish cum pig farming (Rs. 554832.18) was found lower than fish cum dairy farming (Rs. 632267.66). Net income (Rs. 787609.42) and benefitcost ratio (2.42) were found higher in fish-pig integration, which clearly states that integrated fish cum pig farming is more profitable than integrated fish cum dairy farming.
