Dairy cattle have a higher metabolism than normal cattle. Dairy cattle feed includes a variety of forage which includes grass, silage, legumes as well as an assortment of grain, soy, and other high energy density diets. Dairy feed is mainly used in cattle farms and animal feeding units.
Dairy cattle feed is made specifically with the aim of improving the production of milk. Dairy cattle feed is especially rich in carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals which are needed for the healthy growth of a milking animal. Common ingredients of cattle feed include corn-fed, soy feed, rice bran, oilseeds, alfalfa, and wheat which is a major ingredient in almost all varieties of cattle feed due to its property of maintaining proper digestion of dairy cattle.
The major factor affecting the dairy cattle feed market is the obvious increase in demand for milk products. So, the rising populations and changing consumption patterns of the people can be considered indirect growth factors resulting in an increased demand for dairy products. Maintaining a healthy diet also prevents metabolic diseases in the herd and this serves as another growth factor for the market. As for the restraints for the market, the higher cost of specialized feed is the main one. The prospective advantages of using dairy cattle feed are also unknown to several regions and farmers still use traditional diets for their cattle. This lack of awareness among farmers is another restraining factor for the market.
