The handbook "Achieving Higher Milk Yields Through Proper Feeding," authored by agricultural expert Marijan Kalivoda and published in 1982, is an exceptionally practical and professional resource designed for cattle farmers, dairy producers, and all agriculturalists looking to improve production outcomes on their farms. In this book, the author emphasizes the pivotal role that proper, high-quality, and economically sound nutrition plays in achieving high milk yields. The text provides a detailed explanation of the nutritional requirements of dairy cows across various stages—including different phases of lactation, the dry period, and the rearing phase. Kalivoda analyzes the composition, nutritional value, and optimal combination of roughage (grass, hay, silage) and concentrated feeds. Particular attention is given to balancing rations in terms of protein, carbohydrate, mineral, and vitamin content, with the aim of preventing metabolic disorders and ensuring the long-term health and fertility of the livestock. Beyond the theoretical aspects of nutritional standards, the author offers concrete feed formulations and advice applicable to daily farm operations. For decades, this booklet has served as a reliable guide for modernizing dairy farming, improving the utilization of feed resources, and increasing the profitability of milk production.
