Abstract:

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of FineX 1522 supplementation on milk yield and milk composition in lactating dairy animals under commercial farm conditions. Forty lactating dairy animals maintained at Atul Dairy Farm, Igatpuri, Maharashtra, India, were selected based on a uniform stage of lactation and production status. The experiment consisted of a baseline period without supplementation, followed by a 20‑day supplementation period during which FineX 1522 was administered at 30 g animal⁻¹ day⁻¹ mixed with the regular concentrate ration. Milk samples were collected daily and analyzed for milk yield, milk fat, and solids‑not‑fat (SNF). Data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation and analyzed using Welch’s t‑test. Supplementation with FineX 1522 resulted in a significant increase in milk yield (8.16 ± 0.35 vs. 8.84 ± 0.56 L/day), milk fat (4.21 ± 0.08 vs. 4.44 ± 0.13%), and SNF (8.21 ± 0.08 vs. 8.44 ± 0.13%) compared to the baseline period. All improvements were highly significant (p < 0.001). The findings indicate that FineX 1522 effectively enhances rumen efficiency and nutrient utilization, leading to improved milk productivity and milk quality under field conditions.
