This study investigated the effects of dietary rumen-protected lysine (RPLys) on milk yield and composition in lactating cows fed diets containing double-low rapeseed meal. Twenty-four cows were divided into three groups and fed one of three dietary treatments: 10% soya bean meal (SBM) diet (control), 15% double-low rapeseed meal (DLRSM) diet and 15% DLRSM + 32 g/d RPLys (DLRSML) diet. The results showed that no differences (P > 0.05) were observed in milk yield, 4% fat correction milk (FCM), energy correction milk (ECM), protein yield, milk fat yield, milk fat, lactose yield and lactose between control and DLRSM. Supplementation with DLRSML increased (P < 0.05) milk yield, 4% FCM, ECM, and protein yield compared with the SBM. The results indicated that DLRSM and DLRSML might be used to substitute for SBM as a protein source in lactating cows, and the latter might be more beneficial to improve the performance.
