Rumen protected fats in dairy cows and buffaloes ration

Over the last decade, incorporation of fat in the diet for high milk producing cows and buffaloes has become a general practice to increase the energy density. The bypass fat technology protects the nutrient from degradation and biohydrogenation in rumen with increase in energy density of diet enabling the animals to meet their energy and essential fatty acid requirement expressing their milk production potential to the fullest extent. Additional fat fed as bypass fat does not interfere with rumen fermentation process, but supplies more energy to the animals for more milk synthesis after being digested in abomasum and small intestine with absorption from small intestine. This assist in increasing unsaturated fatty acid in milk which can produce softer butter and safer milk for human consumption especially for heart patients.
