1 Influence of pasture-feeding on milk and meat product quality Stanton, C., Mills, S., Ryan, A., Di Gioia, D. and Ross, R.P. GRASS GRASS/CLOVER TMR Catherine Stanton

2 Talk is in two parts 1. The differences between pasture-fed and indoor fed beef and dairy products 2. The implications of these differences to human Health. 2

5 A Scientific basis for We set out to 1. Develop metabolite biomarkers associated with pasture-feeding 2. Characterize the metabolome of pasture derived milk 3. Describe the metabolome of pasture-based dairy products 4. Characterize specific metabolites in terms of nutrition 5. Determine the effect of specific metabolites on human health 5

6 Pasture-based dairy and beef products In United States, the Middle East, Asia and parts of Europe, cows and cattle are fed indoors on grass/maize silages supplemented with concentrates - total mixed ration (TMR). In Ireland and New Zealand, they are typically fed outdoors on fresh pasture. Pasture-based dairy and beef products are positively associated with good animal welfare and more natural and healthier products (Verkerk, 2003). Specific feeding regimes and herd management practices such as pasture feeding are linked to superior organoleptic and nutritional quality attributes of milk, dairy and meat products (Haug et al., 2007; Mann et al., 2003). 6

7 Beef Choice In a survey of 676 beef consumers in Germany, participants exhibited a high preference for beef labelled as 'organic' and 'pasture-based (Risius & Hamm (2017) Meat Sci.). Additionally, when informed about the conditions of 'extensive suckler cow husbandry', consumers were most likely to be motivated by the label 'extensive suckler cow husbandry'. Informing consumers about suckler cow husbandry results in a change of their preferences from 'organic' to 'extensive suckler cow husbandry'. This holds great potential for extensively produced beef..

8 Intra-muscular beef fatty acid composition is improved by inclusion of grass in the diet. (French et al. 1999)

9 Pasture versus TMR feeding system on rumen and milk metabolome

10 Impact of pasture versus TMR feeding systems on the bovine rumen and milk composition Nine cannulated cows were rotated through each of the three feeding systems in early, mid and late lactation Rumen samples were collected and separated into rumen fluid and rumen solid portions DNA was extracted from samples and subjected to 16s Miseq sequencing Milk samples from 10 cows on each feeding system were collected in triplicate during midlactation. Rumen fluid samples and milks were analysed using 1H-NMR at The Metabolomics Innovation Center, University of Alberta, Edmonton. 10 Tom F. O'Callaghan Viva Voce 09/02/2018

Describe the metabolome of pasture-based dairy products 4. Characterize specific metabolites in terms of nutrition 5. Determine the effect of specific metabolites on human health 40
