In this advanced course on dairy nutrition you will learn how to create balanced rations for different stages of a dairy animals life.

How is this advanced course on dairy nutrition different from the basic course on nutrition, you may ask. While the basic course on nutrition deals with several areas on nutrition and gives you the thumb rules to feed dairy animals, this advanced course teaches you how to calculate and create diet formulations for dairy animals. What this means is that if you have different kinds of feed, fodder and mineral mixtures, this course will teach you to find out how much of each ingredient will be needed to feed dairy animals as per their age, body weight and stage of lactation.

This course dives deep into the constituents of feed and fodder such as energy, proteins, neuter detergent fiber (NDF), mineral etc and teaches you how to find out the nutrient requirements of dairy animals in different stages. Knowing this, and the nutrients present in feed and fodder available, you will be able to formulate the exact quantities of fodder, minerals and additives required.
