Abstract
The average milk production for the control lot was 34.7 kg / day / cow ±1.36 kg standard deviation, and for the experimental lot 35.4 kg / day / cow ±1.04 kg standard deviation. It is found an extra quantity of 0.7 kg milk for the experimental lot in report to the control lot. The milk production standardized to 3.5% fat, was for the control lot 34.61 kg/ day / cow , ± 1.30 kg standard deviation, and for the experimental lot, 35.89 kg/ day / cow± 1 kg standard deviation. We obtained an extra quantity of 1.280 kg milk.The forage consumption higher than the one necessary for the support functions determines an increase of the milk production corrected to 3.5% fat and of the forageKeywords
