QUESTION
According to thumb rule, 1 kg of concentrate mixture is required for every kg of milk yield in cows?
OPTIONS
(A) 2
(B) 2.5
(C) 3
(D) 1.5
ANSWER
(B) 2.5
EXPLANATION
A common dairy-cattle thumb rule is approximately 1 kg of concentrate mixture for every 2.5 kg of milk produced, although exact requirements depend on milk yield, forage quality and ration formulation. Thus 2.5 kg milk per kilogram of concentrate is the intended relationship; the other ratios are not the stated thumb rule.
