The goal of the current feeding trial was to compare the economic value of SBM (soybean meal), SFM (sunflower meal) and CM (canola meal) and their effect on milk yield, and milk composition of Holstein Friesian (HF) cows. Nine lactating HF cows were fed on three Iso-caloric and Iso-nitrogenous diets (A, B and C) containing SBM (3%), SFM (9%) and CM (6%) along with basal diet (Oat and wheat straw) respectively for 6 weeks. Mean daily dry matter intake (DMI) of basal diet and Daily total DMI (TDMI) was not different significantly (P>0.05), However DMI of the experimental diets was significantly (P<0.05) affected and daily DMI of experimental diets A, B and C was 5.93, 5.71 and 5.69 kg respectively. High MY (milk yield) (P<0.05) 17.74 kg/day, milk fat (3.87 %) and lactose (4.24 %) were observed for diet A as compare to diet B and C. Same level of TS (11.53, 11.43 % respectively) were observed for diet A and diet C. In sacco rumen degradability value (%) at different incubation period (3, 6, 12, 24, 48 hrs) were high for diet A and were significantly varied (P<0.05) in 6, 12 and 24 hrs among diets A and C. Economics evaluation revealed that cost of feeding (Rs/d) for experimental diets was significantly different (P<0.05) with highest cost of Rs. 204.80 for diet A and lowest was for diet C Rs. 166.65. GI (gross income) via selling milk was highest (P<0.05) for diet A (1419.2 Rs/d) than diets B and C. Net income (NI) of diet A (1214.4 Rs/d) was significantly (P<0.05) highest than diets B and C, 1012.3 and 1071.4 Rs/d respectively. These results concluded that SBM is more economical than SFM and CM at lower level of inclusion in dairy ration and there is a tendency of economical milk production in CM if included as a supplementary protein in the dairy cows ration.
