Dairy Economics-Factors Affecting Production
Guests: Dr. Kevin Dhuyvetter, Elanco & Dr. Phillip Jardon, Iowa State University Extension
While Dr. Jardon only had milk in his glass for this pubcast, he did share about his bottle of “wheyskey” (whiskey made from whey) from Wheyward Spirit Distillery in California (https://www.wheywardspirit.com/). Iowa State Dairy Extension is offering a webinar, “Fermentation and Distillation of Whey to Produce Spirits at Copper Crow,” on May 15 at noon Central. Curtis Basina of Copper Crow Distillery in Bayfield, WI, will be the speaker. You can sign up for the webinar at https://go.iastate.edu/WHEY (4:13) -
Breaking Barriers: Exploring Dietary Factors Influencing Gut Function for Cattle
Guests: Dr. Greg Penner and Claire Bertens, University of Saskatchewan
Dr. Penner describes two primary factors of gut health to be absorption and barrier function or permeability. His lab’s work on permeability is suggesting that intestinal regions really drive total gut permeability to a much greater extent than ruminal permeability in dairy cows. -
Journal Club: Association between change in body weight during early lactation and milk production in automatic milking system herds
Guests: Dr. Bill Weiss, The Ohio State University; Dr. Marcia Endres, University of Minnesota
Dr. Endres begins with a description of a dataset she collected containing individual body weights from 34 robotic milking herds. Weights were collected for every cow; every time that she came into the robotic milking station. Dr. Endres’ team was interested in the relationship between the amount of body weight change in the first 21 days of lactation and subsequent production. (7:34) -
