The Holstein-Friesian Black-and-White cows were grouped into four treatments groups according to the analogue principle (n=4×5). Lactating dairy cows were included in the trial in the initial lactation phase with the average milk yield of 23.00kg per day, fat content 4.10% and 3.20% protein content in milk. The analyses of the chemical composition of legume grainsshow, that crude protein and undegraded intake protein (UIP) were higher in fodder beans than in peas, respectively 29.97% and 25.04% of drymatter but UIP content, respectively 40.51% and 39.69% of crude protein. There was a total of 17 amino acids detected in legume grains and soybean meal. The highest concentration of arginine, leucine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid and isoleucine was in fodder beans,respectively 0.76%, 0.58%, 0.67%, 0.42% and 0.29% more than in peas. Even though the daily milk yields decreased for all the cow groups during the experiment, which was normal during the lactation period, yet the milk yield decreases for the trial groups.The highest total amount of amino acids in milk was detected in 3rdand 2nd trial cow groups, respectively, 4.00gkg-1and 3.90gkg-1which was fed fodder beans and peas. The milk sale and feed cost summary records for the trial that lasted 90days show that economic efficency of peas plus beans has been positive.
