What is the effect of low protein content in beef and dairy cattle ration?

Nitrogen deficiency will be detrimental to a bovine's health, and not enough protein during a time when needed will result in downer cows and deadstock. Protein is very important for all cattle, but particularly for lactating dairy and beef cattle and growing calves because there is a huge demand for it in these animals. Calves without adequate protein will be stunted in growth. Lactating cows on a low-protein diet will put a lot of their bodily reserves into milk and not produce much milk at all. You will find lactating cows lose a LOT of weight to the point where they will get emaciated and die if you don't switch their diet soon.

Most cattle farmers supply their livestock with a protein content between 10 and 16 percent. Some feed can contain even higher amounts of protein.


Feed for broiler layer an cattle?

They all get different types of feed. Cattle cannot be fed animal-byproducts of any sort, but chickens can. Layers need to be fed grain that is high in calcium and phosphorus and protein. Broilers are fed feed high in protein and energy to increase muscle mass. CHickens can be fed a variety of grains: barley, corn, wheat, rye, etc. and live off of this with no problems. Cattle can also be fed a variety of grains, but need a roughage diet to balance out the high-protein ration to decrease the incidence of bloat and acidosis. Cattle cannot live off of grain like chickens can, and need to eat grass and/or hay along with the serving of grain they get.
