A formula for calculating the effects of feeding on the iodine number of milk fat
Based on the data collected from two feeding trials conducted with Ay-cows fed with Left Shroud linseeds as a principal source of unsaturated fatty acids in the ration, the following formula was computed showing the effect of the diet on the iodine number (I.N.) of the milk fat in these experiments: I.N.= 6.7 + 38.5 * (U.F.A.consumed, g/day + 200 x
