This study aims to verify which of the oilseed meals will provide a higher milk production efficiency and milk nutrient profile in grazing cows to optimize the production system and improve milk nutrients for the benefit of nutrition and human health. A Latin square experiment was conducted with 12 cows for 84 days, fed Tanzania grass, and concentrated with cottonseed meal (CotM), sunflower meal (SunM), soybean meal (SoyM) and peanut meal (PeaM). SunM tended to have a higher production of 3.5% fat milk and higher milk urea nitrogen compared with the other treatments. SunM tended to have higher amount of fat in the milk compared with SoyM. PeaM tended to have lower fatty acids C13:0, C15:0 anteiso, C15:0 in milk compared with SunM. PeaM tended to have lower C16:0 and C17:0 iso compared with SoyM and CotM. PeaM had lower C18:1trans in comparison to the other meals. The addition of SoyM tended to have higher C18:1 cis15 compared with PeaM and tended to have lower thrombogenicity index compared with CotM and PeaM. Aiming at milk health in pasture production systems, SoyM presented the best nutritional quality of the lipid fraction. For productivity and fat yield, SunM had better results. |
