Listen "Hydroponic Fodder For Dairy"
Episode Synopsis
This study investigated the impact of feeding hydroponic
maize fodder to crossbred dairy cows.
Researchers compared milk yield, fat content, and
solids-not-fat (SNF) in cows fed hydroponic fodder versus a control group receiving conventional green fodder. The results showed a significant increase in milk yield (7.5%), milk fat (9.4%), and SNF (6%) in the hydroponic fodder group.
This suggests that hydroponic fodder is a viable alternative
to traditional methods, offering a solution to fodder scarcity and potentially
reducing feed costs. The study concluded that hydroponic fodder production is a beneficial technology for sustainable dairy farming.
