Low palatability and low metabolisable energy are the main concerns in current available fodders Fodder availability.Current Feeding Practice Average cattle requires 25 Kg to 50 kg of Green and Dry fodder Vs Current Average cattle feeding 5. dependency on 1 crop and low focus on seasonal forage crops. Short lactation period 3. Long Dry Period 2. Low resistance to Diseases 7. Short life span 8.Effects of low nutrient diet 1. Sickness and mismatching heating period 4. Low body weight and unhealthy calving 6. Low Milk Productivity and Quality milk 5. High dependency on concentrates and nutrition . Need of Good Fodder • Although India is No. • For Low Milk production cost • High milk yield with long lactation days • Timely calving with healthy calf • To maintain resistance to common pest and diseases • To develop adoptability to the seasons and temperature • High yielding with low cost of cultivation . 1 in milk Production. very low in Productivity • Annual milk yield per dairy animal in India is about one tenth of that achieved in the USA and about one fifth of the yield of a grass-fed NewZealand dairy cow. when we discuss forage quality we identify what factors may be limiting the ability of our forage to supply the required nutrients. Fodder should be high in palatibility and digestability It has to be higher yielder in lesser area of cropping It should be good for all the soils and adoptable for all the seasons Fodder should be suitable for wet and dry feeding .What is Quality Fodder The ability of a forage to meet an animals nutritional requirements. Because of this. • Indian dairy industry is lacking of nutritional dietary through that leads to low milk productivity.Advanta . • Advanta forages are very good in palatability. Our forage crops are drought tolerance and very high bio-mass yielder. and SUGARGRAZE for green feeding and silage feeding. • The adoptability is very good across India and suitable for all the seasons. NUTRIFEED. Digestibility and with very high protein. and new processing technology introduction. dairy industry is becoming very good profitable business.Products • With the global dairy industry ramping up. . • Advanta is one of the leaders in forage crops globally. • India we have introduced high nutritional forage crops like JUMBO.

Furrow irrigation will boost the healthy and expected bio-mass.0.Agronomy Soil:Fodder crops can be grown well on a wide range of soil types Soil pH should be 5. Avoid acidic and saline soils Water & Irrigation:Nutrifeed is tolerant to drought but should irrigate before 7 days of harvesting. For higher yield and nutritional values adequate irrigation is required in 10 to 12 days interval. prepare good seedbed for good germination and root development Sowing depth 3cm to 5 cm with soil covering for compaction Row to Row Spacing is 30 cms and Plant to Plant is 15 cms Sowing Type:- . Sowing time:Spring – Feb to April.3 Kg per Acre Spacing:Nutrifeed spacing is row to row 30 cm X plant to plant 15 cm Fertliser:• Fertiliser should use according to the soil test results. • Nitrogen has to apply as top dressing only to get optimum benefit.Irrigation before or after sowing:Irrigate the field before and after sowing for better germination and healthy establishment of crop. Rabi – February to March Seed rate:Nutrifeed .40 Kg per Acre recommended for Nutrifeed • Adequate nitrogen will ensure the crop fast growth and quick recovery after cutting. • Excess nitrogen will leads to high amount on nitrates accumulation in crop as well in milk. DAP . Kharif – May to July . . • Urea -60 Kg (Top Dressing). Nutrifeed should cut above 6 to 8 inches height from the ground level while harvesting/ cutting which is necessary to get immediate re-growth for multi-cut.2 meter is idle height to get more benefits from green fodder.Insect & Disease Management:Nutrifeed is Tolerant to pest and Disease. Cutting & Harvesting:Nutrifeed can cut at feed at any time but 1 meter to 1. Post Cutting Activities:Apply adequate Nitrogen and Water for regeneration of fresh leaves and Stems. .
