Study on Effect of Vitamin E and Chromium Propionate on Milk Composition of Sahiwal Cattle

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of vitamin E and Chromium propionate during transition period in Sahiwal cows to assess the possibilities of improvement in production performance of supplementation of vitamin E and Chromium propionate.A total of 28 cows were selected on the basis of their milk yield, parity and body weight are grouped into four homogenous treatment groups of 7 each.No significant effect of supplementation was seen on milk composition.Whereas, numerically higher was observed of lactose, SNF and total solid percent in milk in supplemented group compared to control group.The present study provided evidence of beneficial effect of Vitamin E and Chromium propionate on milk composition of Sahiwal cattle in transition period.
