Varying protein and starch in the diet of dairy cows. I. Effects on ruminal fermentation and intestinal supply of nutrients.
TL;DR: Data suggest that the intake of N by high-producing dairy cows that consume sufficient energy and other nutrients to meet their requirements can be decreased to about 600 to 650 g daily without compromising the supply of metabolizable protein if the source and amount of dietary CP and carbohydrate are properly matched.

Ruminal Fermentation and Nutrient Digestion by Dairy Cows Fed Varying Amounts of Soyhulls as a Replacement for Corn Grain
TL;DR: Differences in the source of energy, in the amount of fiber and nonstructural carbohydrates digested, and in the site of digestion in the gastrointestinal tract may cause a shortage of the source and/or amount of energy required for maximum milk production in high producing cows when more than 30% of the dietary DM that is supplied as corn is replaced with soyhullss.

Rumen Fermentation and Intestinal Supply of Nutrients in Dairy Cows Fed Rumen-Protected Soy Products
TL;DR: Data suggest that partially replacing SSBM with ESBM, NSBM, or WRSB may increase the quantity of feed protein that reaches the small intestines of dairy cows, but significant improvements in the supply of previously reported limiting amino acids for milk production should not be expected.
