Mature Cows
Table 4 for mature cows includes the nutrient
requirements of cows for months 1 to 12 since
calving. Requirements are shown for mature cow
weights (one month after calving) of 900, 1,000,
1,100, 1,200, 1,300 and 1,400 pounds and three
levels of peak milk production (10, 20 and 30
pounds) during a 29-week lactation for each weight
