  • (16) In Pennsylvania, prilled fat had variable effects on milk composition and little effect on milk yield and FCM.
  • (17) Data suggest that Ca salts of fatty acids and prilled fatty acids are inert in the rumen and do not greatly alter fermentation in the rumen, apparent total tract digestibilities of DM, organic matter, ADF, NDF, and CP, or milk composition when fed at recommended amounts of 3 to 4% of the DM intake.
  • (18) Acetate:propionate ratio was reduced by fatty acid concentrations of 15 and 20% (prilled and unprilled).
  • (19) Milk protein was maintained during prilled fat supplementation but decreased .13% during calcium salt of palm oil fatty acid supplementation.
  • (20) Conception rate was improved in cows consuming rations containing prilled fat: first service, 59.1 versus 42.6%; all services, 59.3 versus 40.7%.

R., Jr., Smith, R. M., and Rill, R. L. (1986) J. Biol.
