The economic efficiency of the use of mixed ligand complexes of Zinc, Man-ganese and Cobalt in the rations of highlyproductive cows of the Ukrainian Black-Spotted Dairy breed
Abstract
The research results on the cost-effectiveness of using different doses of Zinc, Manganese, and Cobalt due to their mixed ligand complexes in the feeding rations of highly productive cows of the Ukrainian Black-Spotted Dairy breed in the first 100 days of lactation are presented. Experimental studies were conducted on five (one control and four experimental) groups of analogous cows in the conditions of the Kyiv region's ALC “Terezyne” Bila Tserkva district. The optimal dose of mixed-ligand complexes of Zinc, Manganese, and Cobalt was established in previous studies, with a concentration of 1 kg of dry matter (DM) of the feed mixture (FM), mg: Zinc – 60.8; Manganese – 60.8, and Cobalt – 0.78. For the second experimental group, the concentration of these trace elements increased by 10 %, and in the 3rd, fourth, and fifth experimental groups – on the contrary, it decreased by 10 %, 20, and 30 %, respectively, compared with the control. The highest hopes of essential fat milk were in experimental cows of the 4th group and were 4791.7 kg, where due to mixed ligand complexes, the doses of Zinc and Manganese were 48.6 mg, and Cobalt – 0.62 mg per 1 kg of DM. The hopes of essential fat milk, compared with the control, in cows of the second experimental group, was higher by 155.2 kg, the 3rd – by 211.3 kg, the 4th – by 427.0 kg, and the fifth experimental group – by 234.6 kg. The lowest hopes of essential fat milk were in cows of the first control group. Using additives of mixed ligand complexes of Zinc, Manganese, and Cobalt in complete feed mixtures allowed profit, UAH: in the first control group – 7581.5; second experimental group – 7963.1; third – 8004.1; fourth – 8437.6 and 5th – 8119.0. The most significant profit, by UAH 856.1, or 11.29 % more than control, was obtained in the fourth experimental group of cows of the Ukrainian Black-Spotted Dairy breed. The positive effect of feeding different levels of Zinc, Manganese, and Cobalt due to their mixed ligand complexes to cows of the Ukrainian Black-Spotted Dairy breed in the first 100 days of lactation on the indicators of economic efficiency of milk production. The best results were obtained in the fourth experimental group, whose cows were fed a feed mixture containing 1 kg of DM, mg: Zinc – 48.6; Manganese – 48.6; Cobalt – 0.62; Selenium – 0.3; Copper – 12 and Iodine – 1.1.
