- W4378782707 abstract "Concentrate-rich starter diets are commonly fed to dairy calves to stimulate growth performance. However, feeding high amounts of starter feed with low inclusion of forage fibre may jeopardise the development of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). Moreover, studies investigating the effects of feeding on carcass and meat quality of young calves at rearing are rare. The objective of this research was to investigate the effect of hay quality and concentrate inclusion on the traits of GIT development, slaughter performance and veal quality of young dairy calves. The feeding trial covered the first 14 weeks of life. Seventeen male and three female Holstein calves (n = 20) were randomly allocated to four experimental groups, which received besides acidified whole milk different solid feeds: (1) 100% medium-quality hay (MQH), (2) 100% high-quality hay (HQH), (3) 30% medium-quality hay and 70% concentrate (MQH+C) and (4) 30% high-quality hay and 70% concentrate (HQH+C). The acidified whole milk was fed in the first 12 weeks of life, and calves had ad libitum access to solid feed and water from birth till slaughter. Calves were kept in individual boxes equipped with straw and slaughtered at the end of week 14. After slaughter, gut development traits, rumen histology, slaughter performance and meat quality were assessed. Overall, both concentrate inclusion and hay quality showed major effects on rumen histology and development of the GIT in dairy calves with minimal effects on most carcass cuts and meat quality traits. Concentrate-fed calves had significantly higher average daily gains, final body weights, blood amounts and proportions of organs from the circulatory and respiratory systems. Proportions of liver and kidneys were lowest in MQH-fed calves. The proportion of GIT was significantly lower in groups fed concentrates, but the weight of the reticulorumen was unaffected by solid feed. Concentrate feeding led to thicker keratin layer and epithelium as well as wider papillae in the rumen. Hay quality particularly affected the width of the papilla and epithelium thickness, while feeding hay without concentrate enhanced the thickness of submucosa and muscularis, as well as the size of parotid glands. In conclusion, the type of solid feed affects the development of the GIT with concentrate feeding holding the risk to induce keratinisation of rumen epithelium while enhancing performance and carcass traits." @default.
