The Relationship

Scientific advances in nutrition of dairy cows in the first decade of the XXI century have occurred. This paper will review the most common additives fed to transition cows to decrease the incidence of metabolic disorders, which will be discussed separately with emphasis on their mechanisms of action, utilization and efficiency. Some changes on protein in the 2001 updated version of the Nutrient Requirements of Dairy Cattle to reach better precision of the nitrogen and amino acid requirements of lactating cows also are presented. Many of the advances in nutritional manipulation of milk fat concentration are related to fat supplementation, then the relationship between the action of rumen microbes on biohydrogenation of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids and milk fatty acid profile are discussed as well as the main factors identified as being responsible for milk fat depression.

Global Population

Increased incidence of several economically important diseases (i.e. mastitis, metritis, displaced abomasum and ketosis) causes significant animal welfare problems and production losses in transition dairy cattle and decreases the availability of safe and nutritious food for a growing global population. A major underlying factor responsible for the development of transition cow disorders is metabolic stress, which occurs when cows fail to adapt physiologically to an increase in nutrient requirements needed for parturition and the onset of copious milk synthesis and secretion. Metabolic stress can be characterised as resulting from the combined effects of altered nutrient metabolism, dysfunctional inflammatory responses, and oxidative stress. Together, these factors form destructive feedback loops that exacerbate metabolic stress and cause health disorders in transition cows. A better understanding of how nutrition and immunology interact to influence metabolic stress will facilitate the development of control programs to improve transition cow health. The ability to detect signs of metabolic stress early enough in the dry period to implement needed management adjustments before calving will be the key to successful monitoring and intervention programs.
