It is a growing practice among dairy farmers to feed the same ration to all cows except the highest milk producers. Although this saves labor, it is wasteful of protein, since dry cows and low producers receive excess protein in their ration. 4, record 1, English, - dry%20dairy%20cow

Il est de plus en plus courant chez les producteurs de lait de donner la même ration à toutes les vaches, à l'exception de celles qui produisent le plus de lait. Bien que cette pratique épargne du travail, elle constitue en fait un gaspillage de protéines, puisque les vaches taries et les faibles productrices reçoivent un surplus de protéines dans leur ration. 4, record 1, French, - vache%20laiti%C3%A8re%20tarie
