Изучили экстерьерно-конституциональные типы коров-первотелок швицкой бурой породы согласно промерам основных статей телосложения. Измерение проводили со 2-го по 5-й мес лактации. На основании полученных данных были выделены 3 типа телосложения коров: лептосомный (узкотелый), мезосомный (промежуточный) и эйрисомный (широкотелый). Установлено, что из обследованного поголовья (n=42) к узкотелому типу телосложения было отнесено 21,4% (n=9), ко второму — 28,6% (n=12) и третьему — 50,0% (21 голова). Животные лептосомного типа достоверно превосходили своих сверстниц эйрисомного типа на 3,5% (Р≤0,01), высоте в крестце — на 3,2% (Р≤0,001). Коровы эйрисомного типа имели некоторое преимущество по глубине, ширине и обхвату груди. Животные лептосомного типа достоверно превосходили сверстниц мезосомного и эйрисомного типов по индексу высоконогости (на 9,5—13,1%). По индексу растянутости разница была незначительной, с превосходством коров эйрисомного типа, они также были более широкотелы и имели некоторое преимущество по индексу сбитости (на 1,3—2,4%) и грудному индексу (на 2,4—3,1%). По тазо-грудному индексу и костистости между животными мезосомных и эйрисомных типов нет существенной разницы, а с лептосомными разница составила 4,2—4,6% (Р≤0,05), 2,6—3,2% (Р≤0,05) соответственно. Из исследуемого поголовья коров-первотелок наибольшим удоем (1415 кг), выходом молочного жира (54,1 кг) и белка (47,3 кг) за первые 100 дней лактации характеризовались коровы-первотелки лептосомного типа, животные мезосомного типа имели промежуточные показатели. При разработке планов совершенствования стада рекомендуем определять экстерьерно-конституциональные типы и учитывать их в селекции. We studied the exterior and constitutional types of first-calf cows of the Swiss brown breed according to the measurements of the external body parts of the constitution. The measurement was performed from the 2nd to the 5th month of lactation. Based on the data obtained, 3 constitutional types of cows were identified: leptosomic (shallow-bodied), mesosomic (intermediate), and eurysomic (broad-bodied). It was found that 21.4% of the examined livestock (n=42) were classified as shallow-bodied (n=9), 28.6% (n=12) as mesosomic, and 50.0% (21 animals) as eurysomic. Animals of the leptosomic type significantly exceeded their herdmates of the eurysomic type by 3.5% (P≤0.01); height at hips — by 3.2% (P≤0.001). The eurysomic cows had some advantage in chest depth, width, and girth. Animals of the leptosomic type significantly exceeded their herdmates of the mesosomic and eurysomic types in terms of the long legs index (by 9.5—13.1%). The difference in the stretch index was insignificant, with the superiority of the eurysomic type of cows, they were also more broad-bodied, and had some advantage in the blockiness index (by 1.3—2.4%) and the thoracic index (by 2.4—3.1%). Following the pelvic-thoracic and bones indices, no significant difference is observed between mesosomic and eurysomic animals, and the difference with leptosomic animals was 4.2—4.6% (P≤0.05), 2.6—3.2% (P≤0.05), respectively. Among the studied first-calf cows, the highest milk yield (1415 kg), the content of milk fat (54.1 kg), and protein (47.3 kg) for the first 100 days of lactation were typical for first-calf cows of the leptosomic type, animals of the mesosomic type had intermediate indicators. Therefore, when developing plans for improving the herd, we recommend determining the exterior and constitutional types and take them into account for breeding.

The Difference

The influence of bullock`s different breeding value for reproductive ability and milk production of their  daughters were investigated. Established that the age of first productive insemination of heifers Ukrainian black spotted milk breed, was 17.5–18.6 months and age of first calving – 26.6–27.8 months. Heifers` live weight at the first insemination was 361.4–407.1 kg. During first lactation the highest productivity had daughters from parents with breeding value by milk yield more than 801 kg. In the first lactation wasn’t found significant difference in duration service-period and interparturition-period for cows derived from progenitors with different breeding value. In the second lactation best indexes in duration service-period and interparturition-period for cows derived from progenitors with breeding value by milk yield 601–800 kg and more than 801 kg. In the third, the highest lactation, these indexes were best for cows derived from progenitors with breeding value by milk yield 601–800 kg. The difference in milk yield during first lactation between heifers received from progenitors with breeding value by milk yield less than 200 kg and heifers from bullock`s  with breeding value 401–600 kg was 292 kg. The difference in milk yield between heifers received from progenitors with breeding value by milk yield less than 200 kg and heifers from bullock`s  with breeding value  with breeding value 601–800 kg  was 660.3 kg. The difference in milk yield between heifers received from progenitors with breeding value by milk yield less than 200 kg and heifers from bullock`s  with breeding value more than 801 kg was  920.8 kg In the second lactation this difference was 589.8 (Р < 0.001), 841.5 (Р < 0.001) і 894.4 (Р < 0.001) kg of milk, in the third, the highest lactation – 754.5 (Р < 0.001), 951.8 (Р < 0.001) і 1335.7 кг (Р < 0.001).

An experiment was conducted on early lactating dairy cows to study the effect of rumen protected choline (RPC) and methionine (RPM) on milk yield and composition. Fifteen crossbred dairy cows in early lactation (within 10 days of calving) were selected and randomly allotted to any one of the following three dietary treatments, T1 (Control)- with compound feed mixture containing CP- 20% and TDN- 68% , T2- T1+20g RPM and 20g RPC, T3- with compound fed mixture containing CP- 17%, TDN- 68% + 20g RPM and 20g RPC. All the experimental animals were fed as per ICAR feeding standards (ICAR, 2013). Results revealed no significant difference (p>0.05) in milk yield and 4 per cent fat corrected milk (FCM) yield between the three treatment groups. Among the milk constituents, animals in T3 had significantly higher milk fat (p<0.05), SNF (p<0.05), protein (p<0.05) and total solids (p<0.01) compared to those in T1 and T2. Milk urea nitrogen levels did not differ significantly among the three treatments and were within the normal range. The study showed that milk composition could be effectively improved by supplementing feed with rumen protected forms of choline and methionine in combination at lower dietary protein level without any reduction in milk yield.

The improvement of cattle of Black-and-White breed by mating of maternal stock with the sires of Holstein breed continues at the present time. Therefore, breeding in pedigree farms for the production of milk is carried out including the use of Holstein lines. The purpose of the work was to assess the milk productivity of cows of Black-and-White breed, with a high proportion of blood in Holstein breed, depending on their linear origin. In the herd of the breeding farm where the research has been carried out, the lines Reflection Sovereign 198998 and Wes Ideal 933122 occupy the dominant position in terms of the specific weight of cattle, followed by the line Montwick Chieftain 95679. The difference in milk yield between groups of cows of different lines was from 3,0 to 354 kg or 0,04 to 4,6 %. The highest milk yield was shown by the first-calf heifers of the line Wes Ideal 933122 – 7787±123,21 kg. In the milk of the first-calf heifers of the line Pabst Governor 882933 compared with herdmates of other lines the increased content of fat and protein has been noted,. The difference in the mass fraction of fat in milk was significant in favor of Pabst Governor 882933 cows (P ≤ 0,01–0,001). There was also the significant difference in the mass fraction of fat in milk between the groups of cows of the lines Montwick Chieftain 95679, Reflection Sovereign 198998 and Wes Ideal 933122 in favor of the latter at P ≤ 0,05–0,01. A definite association between milk yield and the mass fraction of fat in milk has not been established. There is a pattern of the positive association between the mass fraction of fat and the mass fraction of protein in milk and it is clearly seen that with the increase in the mass fraction of fat in milk, there is the increase in the mass fraction of protein.

Twenty–one multiparous Holsteins were used in a cross over design with two 28-d periods. Cows were randomly assigned to two treatments to assess the effect of textured and pelleted concentrates fed with alfalfa cubes on feed intake, milk yield, milk composition and rumen volatile fatty acid concentrations. Those animals receiving the textured concentrate had significantly (P < 0.05) higher milk yield and milk fat percentage than did those animals fed the pelleted concentrate. A significant difference in the ratio of milk protein to milk fat was also observed with the cows receiving the pelleted concentrate having a ratio of 1.31 and the cows receiving the textured concentrate a ratio of 1.02. No significant (P < 0.05) differences were observed between the textured and pelleted feeds in total or individual volatile fatty acid concentrations. These results indicate that the feeding of textured concentrates can lead to an increase in milk fat production when compared with the feeding of pelleted concentrates.

Investigation of the selection methods, used during various stages of the creating the Ukrainian red dairy breed, has an actual significance in the evaluation of the methodology of the breed formation process. A comparative analysis found that the female ancestors of the studied cows according to milk yield significantly differed. With each subsequent stage, bulls-breeders, which were used in the breeding process, prevailed over female ancestors of the previous stage according to the milk productivity. The level of maternity benefit of the parents of the second and third stages was higher than that of the parents of the first stage mothers. However, for fatty milk, the parents of stage I parents had a superiority, compared with the second and third stages. While analyzing the milk yield of mothers of cows, it was found a certain pattern. In particular, the increase in milk in the next stages of the breeding of Ukrainian red dairy breed. According to the productivity of cows-primates, derived from different selection methods, determined by the level of support of female ancestors, the effectiveness of the use of highly heterogeneous selection is established. The difference in comparison with the homogeneous selection for the second and third stages was 462 kg (P > 0.999) and 235 kg of milk, respectively. As for the first stage of  breeding of Ukrainian red dairy breed, the best results were obtained from the use of moderately heterogeneous selection. Its efficiency is confirmed by the highest milk yield of 359 kg (P > 0.95) of milk compared with homogeneous selection. There was a tendency to increase the fat content in milk of animals in the I, II and III stages of the breeding process in a highly heterogeneous selection in comparison with homogeneous selection, the difference was accordingly 0.04%, 0.05% and 0.03%. It should be noted that in the second stage, heterogeneous selection was effective. Along with the abovementioned, there is a general tendency of reduction of fatty milk production in ІІІ stage compared to І and ІІ stages. This is explained by the inclusion in the program of the breeding process of the Ukrainian red dairy breed using the Holstein breeder bulls. Based on the analysis of the data obtained, we have a convincing confirmation of the effectiveness of a highly heterogeneous selection. In the first and second stages of breeding, the prevail of milk fat was 15.4 kg (P > 0.99) and 12.9 kg (P > 0.95) compared to homogeneous selection. Thus, it is logical to increase the level of milk productivity in the studied cows from the first to the third stage of the withdrawal of Ukrainian red dairy breeds with the advantage of using highly heterogeneous selection.

Duration Of Operation

Many years of experience in the operation of milking machines show that milking rubber was and remains a short-lived and unreliable link in the technological process of machine milking. During operation, rubber quickly loses its strength and elastic properties, becomes stiff and less elastic, deforms, and changes its shape. The purpose of this study is to identify changes in the technical parameters of milking rubber under industrial conditions in order to establish their impact on the milking process. The obtained results could make it possible to rationally choose the milking rubber for teat cups, which would ensure an effective milking process. During this study’s initial stage, the physical and mechanical condition of milking rubber was experimentally established at steam disinfection and as a result of saturating the article with milk fats. The following stage implied detecting the effect of milking rubber tension in a teat cup on the speed of milking. It was established that milking rubber during operation is actively exposed to milk fat, which leads to the loss of its weight relative to its original value. On day 1,000 of work, the weight loss relative to the initial value (100 g), under the washing regime temperature of 85 °C, 50 °C, 35 °C, and 20 °C, was 1 g, 3.3 g, 5 g, and 4.2 g, respectively. The dependences have been derived for the swell mass of milking rubber M on the temperature of washing solutions T and the duration of operation t as a result of saturation with milk fats. The dependence of milk yield rate V on the tension force of milking rubber F in teat cups has been established. Thus, it was found that when the tension force of milking rubber changes from 25 to 60 N, the difference in the average intensity of milk yield is 0.13 kg/min (10.8 %). Regarding the amount of milk yield at the specified tension, the difference is 0.15 kg (2.5 %). At rubber tension from 60 to 25 N, the average milking time increases by 0.46 min (8.3 %). Thus, it was determined that a milking machine with milking rubber at different tension over a total milking time would unevenly milk different parts of the cow’s udder. The study reported here expands the idea about the technical and manufacturing characteristics of rubber articles, namely changes in them at steam disinfection and as a result of saturation with milk fats

Abstract. The aim of the research is a comparative assessment of the morphological and functional properties of the udder, productive longevity of cows of Black-Mottled and Simmental breeds. Methods. The work was carried out on the basis of an agricultural enterprise of the Tyumen region, where a loose method of keeping cows and voluntary milking by a robot is used. In the first group – cows of Black-Mottled breed, in the second – Simmental. Results. Cows of the first group of the Black-Mottled breed had a uniformly developed udder with an index of 45.1 % and were superior to animals of the second group of the Simmental breed: in girth by 7.2 cm (5.4 %) (p < 0.001) and width by 1.0 cm (5.0%) (p < 0.001). The indicator characterizing the capacity of the udder in animals of the black-mottled breed is greater than in simmentals by 295.2 cm2 (10.0 %) (p < 0.05). The difference in the rate of milk yield of cows was 0.05 kg / min (2.3 %) in favor of simmentals. The period of production use of Black-Mottled cows is longer than this indicator in simmentals by 0.4 lactation (p < 0.001). Animals of the Black-Mottled breed gave 2471.0 kg (p < 0.001) more milk over the entire period of use compared to animals of the Simmental breed. In addition, in Black-Mottled cows, the amount of milk fat and milk protein during the life period exceeds simmentals by 86.3 and 72.3 kg (p < 0.001). Novelty. When using the developed method of selecting highly productive cows, it makes it possible to get more milk from cows per day by 1.4 kg (6.7 %), for 305 days – by 268.1 kg (5.4%), for the period of life – by 1684.4 kg (9.7%). This method allows you to extend the period of economic use of the dairy herd by 0.4 lactation (14.8 %).

To study the traits of exterior type of firstborn cows of Sumy intrabreed type of Ukrainian Black-and-White milk breed, a research was carried out in the breeding flock in Sumy region. The first-calf cows were estimated by the method of linear classification according to the age of 2–4 months after calving in two systems – 9-score, with a linear description of 18 conformation traits, and a 100-point classification system, taking into account four sets of breeding traits that characterize: dairy type, body development, condition of legs and feet, and udder morphological qualities. Results of linear estimation cows firstborn in the experimental herd on a 100-point scale indicated that traits within the group average final score was in the range of "good plus." Cows-firstborn were characterized by good development of group traits defining their dairy type (82.9 score), body trait development (84.1 score), condition of legs and feet (82.3 score), udder (82.6 score) and final type score (82.9 score). The development level of 18 conformation traits of cows showed their significant variability inside a controlled herd. In general, estimated animals in the breeding flock of PE "Burynske" of Pidlisnivskoy branch were characterized by well-defined height, body depth, angularity, rump angle, rump width, fore udder attachment, central ligament and udder depth. The results of linear classification showed that body structure of the first-born cows of Sumy intrabreed type of Ukrainian Black-and-White dairy breed at the present stage of selection had a rather good characteristic of descriptive traits that determined their dairy type. According to results of research, first-born cows with estimation "very good" exceeded peers with score "good plus" by milk yield with highly reliable difference of 583 kg (P < 0.001), and with score "good" – at 1884 kg, the difference was also highly reliable at Р ˂ 0,001 With unreliable reducing the fat content in milk from cows with score "good plus" and "good", milk fat gain at firstborn with the assessment "very good" was compared in animals with score "good plus" 20.8, and "good" – at 68.8 kg (R ˂ 0,001). Use in dairy cattle selection process of linear classification method was very effective objective definition of pedigree cows exterior features and a link between the group of linear traits and milk yield – guarantee the efficiency of selection of animals by type.

Изучено влияние белково-витаминного минерального концентрата (БВМК) на молочную продуктивность коров и рассчитана экономическая эффективность его применения. Для проведения опыта с учетом количества дней лактации были сформированы 3 контрольные и 3 опытные группы по 10 голов. В I контрольную и I опытную группы вошли животные на стадии раздоя (30—60 дней лактации), во II контрольную и II опытную группы — коровы в середине лактации (150—180 дней), в III контрольную и III опытную — животные в конце лактации (240—270 дней). Для коров опытных групп были составлены рационы с БВМК, которым заменяли пропорциональное количество концентрированных кормов и часть витаминно-минерального премикса. Коровы I опытной группы получали с рационом БВМК «Статус VI» в количестве 1200 г, II опытной — БВМК «Статус I» по 350 г, III опытной — БВМК «Статус I» по 250 г на 1 голову в сутки. Максимальный уровень молочной продуктивности по результатам опыта показали животные II опытной группы. Среднесуточный удой за 60 дней опыта у них составил 46,1±1,11 кг, что больше на 4,7 кг молока, или на 11,4% (P≤0,05), чем во II контрольной группе. В период раздоя среднесуточный удой за 60 дней опыта в I контрольной и I опытной группах был на уровне 36,4±1,37 кг и 42,4±1,22 кг молока соответственно. Достоверное различие (P≤0,01) между ними составило 6,0 кг молока, или 16,5%. Наименьший среднесуточный удой за период опыта показали животные III контрольной (26,4±1,20 кг) и III опытной (28,5±1,53 кг) групп. Различие между ними было менее существенным, чем у коров в период раздоя и в середине лактации, и составило 2,1 кг, или 8,0%. Применение БВМК в кормлении лактирующих коров дало выраженный экономический эффект. Дополнительно полученная прибыль в расчете на 1 голову в сутки составила: в I — 127,4 руб., во II опытной группе — 117,0 руб., в III — 33,4 руб. The influence of PVMC on the milk productivity of cows has been studied and the economic efficiency of its application has been calculated. To experiment, taking into account the number of days of lactation, 3 control and 3 experimental groups of 10 animals each were formed. The 1st control and 1st experimental groups included animals at the milking stage (30—60 days of lactation), the 2nd control and 2nd experimental groups — cows in the middle of lactation (150—180 days of lactation), 3 control and 3rd experimental — animals at the end of lactation (240—270 days of lactation). For the cows of the experimental groups, rations were made with PVMC, which was replaced by a proportional amount of concentrated feed and a part of the vitamin and mineral premix. Cows of the 1st experimental group received a diet of PVMC «STATUS VI» in the amount of 1200 g / head/day, the 2nd experimental group — PVMC «STATUS I» at 350 g / head/day, the 3rd experimental group — PVMC «STATUS I» 250 g / head/day. The maximum level of milk productivity according to the results of the experiment was shown by the animals of the 2nd experimental group. The average daily milk yield for 60 days of the experiment was 46.1±1.11 kg, which is more by 4.7 kg of milk or 11.4% (P≤0,05) than in the 2nd control group. During the period of milking, the average daily milk yield for 60 days of the experiment in the 1st control and 1st experimental groups was at the level of 36.4±1.37 kg and 42.4±1.22 kg of milk, respectively. A significant difference (P≤0,01) between them was 6,0 kg of milk or 16.5%. The smallest average daily milk yield throughout the experiment was shown by the animals of the 3rd control (26,4±1,20 kg) and 3rd experimental groups (28.5±1.53 kg). The difference between them was less significant than in animals during the milk period and in the middle of lactation and amounted to 2.1 kg or 8,0%. The use of PVMC in feeding lactating cows gave a pronounced economic effect. Also, the profit received per head per day was: in the 1st experimental group (milking period) — 127.4 rubles; in the 2nd experimental group (mid—lactation) — 117.0 rubles; in the 3rd experimental group (end of lactation) — 33.4 rubles.

A series of scientific and economic experiments have already been conducted to determine the norms for including local non-traditional feed additives in the rations of cattle, but they were not sufficient for the rational use of these feed additives. In order to determine the effectiveness of the use of local feed additives a scientific and economic experiment has been carried out under the environments of the APC “Krestyakh” in the Suntarsky district. Two groups of first-calf heifers have been selected per 50 heads in each. The groups have been formed by using the method of analogues. The environments of housing in all groups have been the same. The difference was that the experimental group of first-calf heifers have received from the local unconventional feed additives (zeolite khongurin, sapropel and Kempendyaskay salt). The results of the production test have shown that the experimental group of first-calf heifers exceeded the control group’s analogues in terms of milk yield by 233,4 kg or 9,4 %. Experimental group of first-calf heifers has had more high content of fat in milk 0,17 abs.%. When recalculating the content of fat in milk for 4 %, the difference in gross milk yield between the groups was 16,73 t or 14,3 % in favor of the experimental group. Economic analysis of the results of research and production experiment has shown that there was a significant difference in profit between the groups. So, in the control group it was 462 247,46 rubles, and in the experimental group 528 444,43 rubles. Additional profit in the experimental group was equal to 66 196,97 rubles, while the level of profitability was 8,2 %. Thus, the results of the research have shown that first-calf heifers of Simmental breed that received local non-traditional feed additives had higher milk productivity.
