The observation was focused on the effect that a feeding frequency using TMR twice or three times a day has on the parameters of performance, dry matter intake (DMI), rumen fluid composition, chewing activity and behaviour of animals if they were given feeds in a summer season. 13 Holstein and 5 Czech Red Pied dairy cows, which were on average 70.5 days after calving, were used in a periodical experiment. If a feeding ration with a considerable ratio of corn starch was given three times a day, statistically significantly higher DMI (P 0.05) by 1,310.74 g/head/day and higher daily milk yield by 1.24 kg/head ( 0.05).
