        The generation of co-products continues at an accelerating pace, driven by population growth. Many of these co-products can be included in ruminant feed, which has the ability to transform them into good quality animal protein, and also help to reduce the disposal of undesirable residues to the environment. One of the co-products with potential use in animal feed, the citrus pulp, represents residues of the crushing of the fruit to remove the juice. In this review, these co-products are studied for their nutritional value, nutrient digestibility, and their influence on animal performance, in addition to ruminal characteristics. Due to its chemical composition, citrus pulp is widely used as an energetic component in the diet, replacing mainly maize, since these two have a similar energy value. In addition to increasing energy intake in the diet, citrus pulp has a greater capacity to assist in the maintenance of adequate ruminal performance compared to starchy cereals. پرونده مقاله

        The objective of the present study was to determine the effect of substitution of corn grain with dried citrus pulp (DCP) on milk composition, fatty acids profiles and blood metabolites in Holstein dairy cows. These parameters were measured in a replicated 4 × 4 latin square design experiment using eight Holstein cows. Each experimental period lasted 4 weeks. The four treatments were: control (without DCP), and supplemented groups with 50%, 75% and 100% DCP:corn grain ratio (dry matter basis), respectively. The experimental diets was fed as a total mixed ration. The applied DCP led to a decrease in dry matter intake (DMI), milk yield, milk fat (MF) concentration, de novo fatty acid synthesis, milk protein concentration, milk protein yield, MF yield, milk lactose yield and MF:protein ratio (FPR). Inclusion of DCP in the dites showed significant differences in blood metaboites containing blood urea nitrogen (BUN), cholestrol, triglyceride (TG) and glucose (p < 0.05). In addition, milk urea nitrogen (MUN) was affected by replaced DCP (p < 0.05). The contents of C16:0 and C18:0 in the milk of cows fed the control diet, were higher and lower than the cows fed DCP diets, respectively (p < 0.05). The β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) and acetone as ketosis index in the cows fed with DCP were increased significantly (p < 0.05). It was concluded that inclusion of DCP in dairy cow rations improved the fatty acid profile of the milk and increased blood serum glucose concentration and can be used as an energy supplement in the diet of lactating cows to support milk production. پرونده مقاله
