ABSTRACTUrinary nitrogen (UN) excretion and milk production traits of 35 groups of 15 grazing cows each were measured over two years. Urine volume and N concentration were measured with urine sensors and daily UN excretion was calculated for four consecutive days. Milk yield, composition and cow liveweight (LW) were used to estimate daily dry matter intakes (DMI) based on back-calculated animal energy requirements and feed metabolisable energy (ME). Different N fractions in the diet were estimated using laboratory data and protein digestion equations. Mean estimates of N intake and UN excretion were 460 and 227 g N/d, respectively. Urinary-N represented 52% of the N consumed, which aligns with indoor N balance studies. Urinary N excretion was weakly correlated (r = 0.29) with dietary N intake, but moderately correlated (r = 0.63–0.67) with diet N concentration, diet N:ME ratio, and diet effective rumen degradable protein (ERDP). The ERDP balance had moderate to strong correlations with N utilisation efficiency (r = −0.89) and the UN expressed relative to N intake (r = 0.59) and N in milk (r = 0.78). These relationships illustrate the potential of urine sensors and energy-based estimations of intake to assess the influence of dietary management strategies to mitigate UN excretion from grazing animals.KEYWORDS: Urine sensorsnitrogenmilk proteinrumen degradable proteinintake AcknowledgementsData collection and analyses in this study were conducted under the Low N Livestock and Low N Systems programmes, which are funded by New Zealand dairy farmers through DairyNZ Incorporated and by the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (contract #DRCX1701).

Solid fat content at 10°C (SFC10) is an important parameter of milk fat that influences the spreadability of butter. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of breed and stage of lactation on SFC10 of milk fat from cows milked once a day (OAD) or twice a day (TAD). Milk was collected from 39 Holstein-Friesian (F), 27 Jersey (J), and 34 Holstein-Friesian × Jersey (F × J) cows from a OAD herd and 104 F and 83 F × J cows from a TAD herd in early, mid and late lactation. The SFC10 was predicted using a regression model using milk fatty acid composition. The lower the SFC10, the higher the spreadability of butter. The SFC10 was lower (P < 0.05) for F cows compared with J cows milked OAD. The SFC10 was lower (P < 0.05) for F cows compared with F × J cows milked TAD. The SFC10 was lower in early lactation compared with mid- and late lactation in both milking frequencies. This study revealed that F cow milk and early lactation milk would be suitable for making more easily spreadable butter in OAD and TAD milking. These results could be applicable in the New Zealand dairy industry if consumer preference for more easily spreadable butter increases.

This study examined the suckling behaviour of triplet-rearing ewes for three days post-parturition. Twenty-six ewes were enrolled with 11 being observed for the entire 3-days post-lambing. The behaviour of the ewe, number of lambs present at the end of the event and the behaviour that terminated the event were recorded for each suckling event. The mean suckling event duration increased when additional lambs were present at the end of the suckling event. Ewes that had observations across all three days showed no change in the number of suckling events over time, but suckling events tended to be shorter on day 3 than on days 1 or 2. On day 1 more suckling events were terminated by the ewe walking away from her lambs than on days 2 and 3. The odds of a ewe walking away to terminate the suckling event were greater when three lambs were present compared with two. Ewes showed more inactive behaviours when more lambs were present at the end of the suckling event. The results partially supported the hypothesis that the ewe would be more likely to terminate a suckling event when three lambs were attempting to suck compared with one or two lambs.

ABSTRACTThis study aimed to evaluate the effect of Parkia platycephala pods in the supplements for grazing sheep on intake, digestibility, and animal performance. Twenty-four sheep (21.26 ± 2.87 kg) were used by a completely randomised design with six animals per treatment. The evaluated treatments were mineral salt (MS), mineral salt + urea/ammonium sulfate (urea-supplement; UR), multiple supplements based on corn + soybean meal (MSCS), and multiple supplements in which P. platycephala pods replaced 50% of corn (MSPP). The supplements evaluated did not affect pasture intake, and total dry matter (DM) intake was higher for animals fed multiple or UR than those fed with MS. Sheep fed multiple supplements presented 55.57% higher crude protein (CP) intake than those fed MS or UR. Neutral detergent fibre intake was 17.76% lower in sheep fed MS than those fed other supplements. Animals fed multiple supplements presented higher digestibility for DM and CP than those fed MS or US. Animals fed multiple supplements presented 54.61% higher total body weight gain and 54.79% higher average daily gain than those fed MS or US. Thus, Parkia platycephala pods can replace 50% of corn in multiple supplements without compromising the performance of grazing sheep.KEYWORDS: Biometricsentrance heightlight interceptionParkia platycephalastocking rate Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).

This study determined the nitrous oxide emission factors (EF1, the percentage of N2O emitted as a proportion of fertiliser N applied) for fertilisers ammonium sulphate (AS), diammonium phosphate (DAP), and urea under the same field conditions. Trials were conducted on pasture soils across four sites (Waikato, Manawatu, Canterbury and Otago) in New Zealand during late autumn and spring of 2022. The average EF1 values for urea across all four sites were 0.128% (95% C.I., 0.023% and 0.249%) in late autumn and 0.136% (95% C.I., 0.031% and 0.259%) in spring. The corresponding EF1 values for AS were 0.125% (95% C.I., – 0.021% and 0.246%) in late autumn and 0.083% (95% C.I., 0.015% and 0.197%) in spring, while for DAP, they were 0.049% (95% C.I., – 0.044% and 0.157%) in late autumn and 0.090% (95% C.I., -0.009% and 0.205%) in spring. The mean EF1 values across all four sites and two seasons were calculated as 0.132% (95% C.I., 0.016% and 0.269%) for urea, 0.104% (95% C.I., – 0.008% and 0.235%) for AS, and 0.069% (95% C.I., – 0.036 and 0.194) for DAP. No significant differences in EF1 were observed between the three fertilisers (P > 0.05) at individual sites or when considering all four sites collectively.

The average EF1 values for urea across all four sites were 0.128% (95% C.I., 0.023% and 0.249%) in late autumn and 0.136% (95% C.I., 0.031% and 0.259%) in spring. The corresponding EF1 values for AS were 0.125% (95% C.I., – 0.021% and 0.246%) in late autumn and 0.083% (95% C.I., 0.015% and 0.197%) in spring, while for DAP, they were 0.049% (95% C.I., – 0.044% and 0.157%) in late autumn and 0.090% (95% C.I., -0.009% and 0.205%) in spring. The mean EF1 values across all four sites and two seasons were calculated as 0.132% (95% C.I., 0.016% and 0.269%) for urea, 0.104% (95% C.I., – 0.008% and 0.235%) for AS, and 0.069% (95% C.I., – 0.036 and 0.194) for DAP. No significant differences in EF1 were observed between the three fertilisers (P > 0.05) at individual sites or when considering all four sites collectively.","PeriodicalId":19287,"journal":{"name":"New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135876156","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
