Abstract
Choline is a vitamin-like substance it has multi-function in
animal production, reproduction, and health. The transition
period is most crucial stage in lactation cycle of dairy cows
due to its association with negative hormonal and energy
balances. Unfortunately, unprotected choline easily degrades in
the rumen; therefore, choline added to the diet in a
rumenprotected form. The use of rumen-protected choline (RPC) is
a preventive measurement for the fatty liver syndrome and
ketosis; may improve milk production as well as milk composition
and reproduction parameters. This review summarizes the
effectiveness of RPC on animal production, health, and
reproduction.
Keywords:
choline, dairy cows, health, production, reproduction.
