Süt İneği Konsantre Yemlerinde Bitkisel Yağla Birlikte Glokonit ve Sepiyolit Minerallerinin Kullanılmasının Pelet Bazı Kalite Kriterleri Üzerindeki Etkisi

Öz

Ruminantlar için formüle edilen pelet yemlerde çokça miktarda kil minerallerinin bağlayıcı özelliğinden faydalanılmıştır. Fakat pelet formülasyonu için glokonit mineralinin kullanımını ele alan ilk bilimsel araştırmadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, süt sığırı konsantrelerinde bitkisel yağ kullanımı ile birlikte glokonit ve sepiolitin pelet kalite kriterleri üzerine etkilerini belirlemektir. Pelet konsantre yemler 7 parti (her parti 100 kg) halinde üretilmiştir. Çalışma iki farklı şekilde yürütülmüştür. İlk olarak, pelet üretimi sırasında mineraller (sepiolit ve glokonit) yağ ilave edilmeden %1 ve %2 seviyelerinde eklenmiştir. İkinci olarak, bitkisel yağ konsantrelere %1 ve %2 seviyelerinde eklenmiş, peletleme sırasında ilave %1 eklenmiştir. Her iki deneyde de deney 1 kontrol ve 4 deney grubundan oluşmuştur. Deney sonunda yağ ilave edildiğinde süt sığırları için pelet yemindeki pelet kuru madde düzeyindeki gruplar arası fark, sepiolit ve glokonit ilavesiyle istatistiksel olarak etkilenmiştir. Ancak, bitkisel yağ ilave edilmediğinde pelet kuru madde düzeyi istatistiksel olarak etkilenmemiştir. Süt sığırlarında bitkisel yağ ilaveli ve ilavesiz pelet yemlerde pelet kuru madde düzeyi (sadece yağ ilavesi olunca), pelet dayanıklılık indeksi ve pelet su aktivitesi değerlerindeki gruplar arasındaki fark sepiyolit ve glokonit ilavesinden istatistiksel olarak etkilenmiştir. Glokonitin yağ ile birleştirilmesi peletlerin kuru madde içeriğinde belirgin bir artışa (P<0,05) yol açarken, sepiyolit daha fazla dayanıklılığa katkıda bulunmuştur. Sonuç olarak, bitkisel yağ ilaveli peletlerin kuru madde, pelet dayanıklılık indeksi ve su aktivitesi üzerine glokonit ve sepiyolitin olumlu etkileri nedeniyle, her iki mineralin de süt sığırlarında konsantre yem peletlerinde yem katkı maddesi olarak güvenle kullanılabileceği ve pelet depolama koşullarını iyileştirebileceği sonucuna varılmıştır.

Effect of Using Glauconite and Sepiolite Minerals with Vegetable Oil in Dairy Cattle Concentrate Feeds on Pellet Quality Criteria

Abstract

Pellet feeds formulated for ruminants have utilized the binding properties of clay minerals extensively. However, this is the first scientific study to address the use of glauconite in pellet formulation. The aim of this study is to determine the effects of glauconite and sepiolite on pellet quality criteria, together with the use of vegetable oil in dairy cattle concentrates. Pellet concentrate feeds were produced in 7 batches (each batch 100 kg). The study was carried out in two different ways. Firstly, First, during pellet production, the minerals (sepiolite and glauconite) were added at levels of 1% and 2% without the addition of oil. Second, vegetable oil was incorporated into the concentrates at 1% and 2% levels, with an additional 1% added during pelleting. In both experiments, the experiment consisted of 1 control and 4 experimental groups. At the end of the experiment, when oil was added, the difference between the groups in pellet dry matter level in pellet feed for dairy cattle was statistically significant due to the addition of sepiolite and glauconite. However, when vegetable oil was not added, the pellet dry matter level was not statistically affected. In dairy cattle, the difference between the groups in pelleted feeds with and without added vegetable oil in terms of pellet dry matter level (only when oil was added), pellet durability index, and pellet water activity values was statistically affected by sepiolite and glauconite additions. Glauconite combined with oil led to a notable increase in the dry matter content of pellets (P<0.05), whereas sepiolite contributed to greater durability. As a result, it was concluded that due to the positive effects of glauconite and sepiolite on dry matter, pellet durability index, and water activity of pellets with vegetable oil addition, both minerals can be safely used as feed additives in concentrated feed pellets for dairy cattle and can improve pellet storage conditions.
