A survey on fat content : protein content ratio in milk from dairy cows
Published : 31 May 1991
Abstract
A detailed survey was conducted on 62 dairy farms located in the northen Alpes to determine some of the factors in herd management that influence milk fat content : protein content ratio (FC/PC). Large variations were noted between farms (1.10 to 1.25) and between months in the same farm. Depending on the farms, these variations result mainly either from differences of fat content (more frequent situation) or from differences of protein content. Differences of FC/PC among farms were not well related to the different herd characteristics avalaible. Low FC/PC variations between months in the same farm were associated with good feeding practices (during winter and summer).
