Grassland and animal health Eifel
On five dairy farms in the project group, which represent the different local conditions in the Eifel, over 4 years field tests will be laid out within the cultivation. The farm size in the project is between 60 and 600 dairy cows.
This will not be an exact or variety trial, which were performed on different locations by the chamber of agriculture and DLR Eifel. But a field trial where different large scale fertilizer, standing crops, seed mixtures, yield and silaging will be measured, with regard to their influences on protein degradation (proteolysis and microbial protein degradation)..
The farms are using different conservation methods. Therefore the influences of pre-wilting, DM content, harvesting methods and silaging on conservation loss, protein degradation and forage quality in regard to palatability, feed intake and animal health will be determined.
On each farm the whole grass land will be captured and categorized using soil sampling and plant social inventory.
The data of farm and animal health will be collected homogeneously via dsp-Agrosoft.
The investigation of the value chain from permanent grassland, grazing and perennial fodder production to silage production and animal health is the basis for a sustainable improvement in the profitability of dairy farming. In an interdisciplinary approach, actors from practice, consulting and research have jointly related agricultural practices and veterinary studies in order to optimize the added value and environmental compatibility of dairy farming
