中文摘要 | using three different types of yaks, 30 head of 1-yr-old calves (liveweight 60.7 +/- 6.3 kg), 30 head of 2-yr-old calves (97.7 +/- 10.2 kg) and 30 head of yak cows (160.2 +/- 15.1 kg) were randomly selected from the same yak herds. each type of yak herd was divided into control (c) and trial (t) groups using a completely randomized design, with 10 and 20 animals in the c and t groups, respectively. the animals in the c group were grazed on natural rangeland, and the animals in the t group were supplemented with urea multinutritional molasses blocks (ummb), together with grazing on natural rangeland from january to may of 1998. the objective was to determine the effect of ummb on productive performance of yak calves and yak cows in the cold season. live weight loss of 1-yr-old calves, 2-yr-old calves and yak cows was reduced by 1.2, 8.3 and 7.9 kg after ummb supplementation (p < 0.01). the 1-yr-old calves gained the most in the first month of supplementation, but the 2-yr-old calves and yak cows gained the most both in the first and last supplementation months. daily milk yield of yak cows increased by 0.21 kg d(-1) when the lactating animals were supplemented with ummb (p < 0.01), although there was no effect (p < 0.01) of ummb supplementation on hair and downy hair production. supplementation with ummb also improved reproductive performance of yak cows, with 8.8 and 30.9% increments in pregnancy rate and newborn weight, respectively. we conclude that the benefit of ummb supplementation the 1-yr-old calves was not economical, with only 0.3:1 output to input ratio, but supplementation of the 2-yr-old calves and yak cows may be economical, with 1.8:1 and 1.4:1 output to input ratios, respectively. |
