In this episode of The Dairy Blackbelt Podcast, I received Dr. Paul Kononoff, a professor and extension specialist at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. We explored Dr. Kononoff's research on balanced isoenergetic diets using different energy sources for dairy cattle and the implications for energy utilization. Through a detailed discussion of the study and its findings, the episode explores the impact of starch, fiber, and fat on energy flow in dairy cattle, shedding light on the complexities of energy metabolism and diet formulation.

Meet the guest: Dr. Paul Kononoff earned his M.S. from the University of Saskatchewan and Ph.D. in Dairy and Animal Science from Pennsylvania State University. After completing his doctorate, he joined the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where he serves as a professor and extension specialist.
