This work was carried out with small farmer (up to 150 L/day), medium (150 to 300 L/day) and large (up to 300 L/day) size of the milk productivity, with the aim of characterizing the dairy production city of Morrinhos - GO. We were used 20 variables collected through of information of questionnaires applied to 40 dairy farms. Results showed that the average production (liters/cow/year) was higher than the national average, with of 7.80, 8.66 and 14.55 L/cow/day for the three groups, respectively. Use of area was higher for the group of large producers (19.26 L/ha/day), compared to 3.14 L/ha/day (small producers) and 4.74 L/ha/day (medium producers). As regards the quality of milk produced, only small farmers have achieved the minimum amount of CCS required for Normative Instruction 62 of Brazil, obtained 381.680 CCS/ml. For CBT, all were above to stipulated, where the three groups obtained, respectively, 830,860, 899,580 and 318,690 colony-forming/ml. The three groups were with protein percentage of 3.25% (small farmer), 3.28% (medium farmer) and 3.25% (larger farmer) and fat percentage of 3.51, 3.74%, and 3.80% for 3 103 Colloquium Agrariae, vol. 13, n.

Promising in feed production is the preparation of haylage with subsequent storage of herbage together with preservatives. The modern market off ers various chemical preservatives in the form of organic acids: propionic, formic, benzoic and their salts. Some disadvantages of preservatives of this group (volatility, toxicity, venom, ability to cause respiratory burns, corrosion, etc.) require to organize a search for new ones based on bacteria and enzymes. The purpose of the work was to increase the level of milk productivity of cows and quality of milk by using the preservatives Biosib and Silostan in the preparation of haylage. Scientifi c and economic experiment has been carried out in LLC “Agrofi rma Bairamgul” in the Uchalinsky area in the Republic of Bashkortostan. For the research, 36 Holstein cows have been selected, from which 3 groups of animals have been formed based on the principle of analogues per 12 heads in each. The input in the ration of lactating cows of grain and legume haylage prepared using the technology with the use of preservatives Biosib and Silostan contributes to the increase in milk productivity. The best eff ect has been demonstrated when using the drug Silostan (the 2nd experimental group), which can be explained by the diverse biological composition of microbes, as well as amino acid complexes, enzymes, vitamins and trace elements. The increase in milk productivity of cows of the 1st and 2nd experimental groups allows to reduce the prime cost of production, respectively according to groups, by 38,7 rubles or 3,31 % and 51,1 rubles or 4,43 %; to increase revenue from the sale of milk by 3186,5 rubles or 4,32 % and 3664,0 rubles or 7,24 %; net profi t by 1791,9 rubles or 17,97 % and 2570,6 rubles or 25,78 % and the level of profi tability by 4,14 and 5,52 % compared to the control group.

The lack of certain nutrients in the diets negatively affects the growth and development of young animals, which ultimately leads to a decrease in the productivity of animals, leads to unreasonably high expenditures of feed for the production of livestock products and to an increase in its prime-cost. The purpose of the research was to study the effect of the drug Multivit+Minerals on the milk productivity of cows during the period of increasing the milk yield. The research was carried out on the basis of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise Breeding Farm “Topolya” in the Tyumen region in the winter-stall period. Use of the drug Multivit+Minerals had a positive influence on the quantity and quality of milk. During the period of increasing the milk yield an average of 2,720 kg of milk with a fat content of 3,78 % and protein content of 3,19 % has been obtained from the cows of the experimental group. Enriching the body with vitamins and minerals has allowed increasing milk productivity by 196 kg or 7,8 % (P < 0,05), and improving the quality of milk in terms of fat content by 0,05 abs.% and protein by 0,11 abs.% (P < 0,05). The increase in fat and protein milk content led to the increase in the yield of milk fat by 8,66 kg and protein by 9,03 kg (P < 0,01), while reducing the prime-cost of milk production by 6,0 %. It has been recommended in order to provide animals with vitamins and mineral elements to use the drug Multivit+Minerals in a dose of 20 ml/head.

This review attempts to reflect the importance of different factors that affect the environmental quality of dairy farms and must, therefore, be taken into account when considering the importance of environmental microbiology as a tool in the improvement of the quality of milk and dairy products. The effect of a factor such as temperature is vital for the dairy farm environment, especially when the temperatures are extreme, because a proper choice of temperature range improves the quality of the air and, thus, animal welfare. Similarly, the appropriate level of relative humidity in the environment should be taken into consideration to avoid the proliferation of microorganisms on the farm. Air quality, well-designed livestock housing, proper hygienic practices on the farm, stocking density, and the materials used in the livestock houses are all important factors in the concentration of microorganisms in the environment, promoting better welfare for the animals. In addition, a ventilation system is required to prevent the pollution of the farm environment. It is demonstrated that proper ventilation reduces the microbial load of the environment of dairy farms, enhancing the quality of the air and, therefore, the wellbeing of the animals. All this information is very useful to establish certain standards on dairy farms to improve the quality of the environment and, thereby, achieve better quality milk and dairy products.

The dairy value chain in Tunisia has been facing recurrent problems mostly related to coordination, contracting, pricing and quality imperfections. The policy focus on technology generation and dissemination, without considering the underlying problems related to market imperfections and institutional and socio-economic processes, has contributed to low technology adoption and limited development in the dairy value chain. This paper uses a gaming simulation approach to allow breeders to experiment and consider strategies of cooperation which lead to increased returns and improved quality of milk. The game allows understanding the role of trust and cooperation in improving the performance of the dairy value chain. The experiment was done in two regions and in four sessions each. Results show that benefits to breeders are derived from the price of milk which is determined by the number of cooperation in the repeated games strategies. The resulting Nash equilibrium is one where farmers cooperate without cheating. This solution avoids farmers the risk of rejection of milk and results in price increase as a result of the collective cooperative action.

Background: There are no in-depth research on commercial dairying management and performance of dairy cows under commercial dairying in Chittagong, Bangladesh. The good farming practice and cow’s productivity leads the farm profitability. This study may assist to overcome the problems related to the profitability of dairy farms.Methods: The study was conducted in 28 commercial dairy farms based on two types of data. Primary data: generated from stock inventory and farm management information using a pretested survey questionnaire and analyzed data of average production performance and quality of milk traits indifferent crosses collected directly four times season wise (summer, monsoon and winter) from each selected farms of Chittagong, Bangladesh from 2014 to 2015.Result: Overall management system of irrespective categories of farms was in moderate condition with some exception. Highest number of milking animal was 50% HF × 50% L cross under all farm categories. Crosses of 75% HF × 25% L were highest in number under farm category A and lowest C. In terms of milk quality and quantity, farms with higher number of animals were in better condition. Daily average milk yield was significantly higher in monsoon followed by summer and winter. Therefore, this current study would be helpful for the dairy farmers to find out an expected solution to overcome the problems in this sector.

Milk productivity is highly dependent on inputs used in the dairy farm. The limited source of forage or native grasses with low nutritional quality reduce production and reproduction of dairy cows. Improvement of feed quality can be conducted by various ways, including fortification and supplementation with specific substances that have the potency to increase milk production. This paper describes the potency of local plants, nutritional and bioactive substances that can be utilized to improve production and quality of milk. Some of these plants are cassava (<em>Manihot </em>sp), torbangun (<em>Plectranthus amboinicus</em> (Lour) Spreng) and katuk (<em>Sauropus androgynus</em> (L) Merr) leaves which are potential as feed supplement for cows, goats, and buffalo. The high protein bypass and galactogogue compounds content in these plants are factors increasing production and quality of milk.

1. Milk and butterfat production rise to about the sixth lactation, but beyond the fifth lactation the increase may be neglected.2. The lactation of maximum production may be taken as the fifth which corresponds to 7 years of age.3. Beyond the fifth lactation the milk and butterfat yields vary irregularly but show a downward tendency.4. The fat yield shows either a fall or only a very small increase in the second lactation.5. The fat percentage is highest in the first lactation, drops markedly in the second, remains fairly steady for a few lactations, though with a slight downward tendency, and then falls off in the higher lactations.6. Results obtained by applying correction factors for either age or lactation are quite comparable and choice in the method to be used will depend largely on the original data available.

USE OF PEAT AS LITTER FOR MILKING COWS I* Peltola Work Efficiency Association, Finland This study compared the advandages and disadvandages of peat, straw and sawdust for use as litter. The way in which peat is used, the amounts used and the effect of the litter on the structural parts of the tying-stall shed and an the labour requirement were investigated, and the quality of milk, the incidents of mastitis and the value of the manure were studied. The results show that peat absorbs urine and binds airmonia better than the other litters tested. Peat manure contains more than the average amounts of nitrogen and magnesium, and the nutriens are in the form that is more readily utilised by plants. The anmonia contents of the cowshed air were slightly lower with peat litter than with either straw or sawdust. The difficulty in peat was in handling it. There were no significant differences between the three litters in terms of the labour required. On the other hand, peat was more difficult to store during the cold winter because it tended to freeze. Urine separation systems were easily blocked by peat. The dust content of the cowshed air rose when peat was used. The litter had no affect on the state of health of the animals or on the quality of the milk. These factors are affected more by conditions on the farm in question. Peat was found to be suitable for use as litter. Flexible use of peat requires storage, spreading method and manure removal be designed specifically for peat. These factors are being studied in the final part of the work, which is still in progress. 1. INTRODUCTION The aim of this three year joint study was to investigate the advantages and disadvantages of peat, straw and sawdust for litter as comprehensively as possible. In Finland straw is used on 67% of farms, sawdust on 25% and peat on 3% of dairy farms. Only about 3% of farms use no litter at all. Itie use of peat as litter was compared with sawdust and straw on 15 dairy farms during the indoor feeding period of 1983- 84. For the first 3 months 5 farms used straw as litter, 5 used sawdust and 5 peat. At the end of this period all the farms changed over to peat litter. All the cowsheds had tying-stalls, from which the manure was removed in solid form. The use of peat as litter was studied in Finland in the 1930s and 40s. Today, peat is harvested mechanically by means of a milling cutter, which creates fine particle peat. Cowsheds have also changed with respect to the use of peat with the mechanisation of manure removal. At the same time workers are now demanding better working conditions.
