Summary. The problem of Holstein cows rations during the dry period in complicated climatic conditions of the Sakhalin region is considered. The peculiarity of the climate is high moisture, which leads to impossibility of the long-termed fodder storage and its seasonable provision. The effectiveness of the cows feeding system at agricultural enterprises and peasant farms on Sakhalin Island was assessed, the composition and quality of feed and rations used were studied, and the main factors affecting the quality of harvested feed were identified. As a result, it was found that the main part of dry cowbane feed allowance is the bulk food. However, these forage grasses do not provide the sufficient level of macronutrients, trace elements and vitamins. Also, by using the software Feeding Rations, examples of feed allowance for dry cowbane for winter and summer periods were developed. These regimes provide the necessary ratio of fiber, metabolic energy and protein. Winter rations should include tuberous roots, protein and vitamin supplements, and, if necessary, premixes, mineral supplements, cereal mixtures, fodder molasses. Summer rations should be balanced according to the composition of the forage grasses. General recommendations for the dry cowbane nutrition in agricultural enterprises and peasant farms of the Sakhalin region have been developed based on the research.

Key words: cows, feed, feed ration, Holstein cow, dry period, Sakhalin.
