Abstract
Besides commonly used feed ingredients and protein sources, use of Bypass Protein Feed (BPF) is being recommended in dairy cattle feed as 65 % protein of it is rumen undegradable irrespective of its higher cost . Use of BPF is economical since per litre of milk allowances required is lower as compared to conventional balanced feed (Bhosale, 1998). For lactating cows solvent extracted soybean meal has a favourable amino acid profile (Schwab, 1995) and a high post ruminal protein digestibility (Stern et al., 1994). Soya DOC is utilized for extracting various types of peptides and essential amino acids. On the other end it is a good source of protein, hence present study was undertaken to evaluate its use as milk enhancer and its economics.
