Escape protein supplementation of yearling steers grazing smooth brome pastures.
Two grazing trials utilizing individually supplemented yearling steers were conducted to study the effect of supplemental escape protein on steer performance during the active growth periods, spring and fall, of smooth brome (Bromus inermis). Graded levels (0, .11, .23 and .34 kg.head-1.d-1) of an equal-protein-basis mixture of bloodmeal and corn gluten meal were offered daily, replacing corn s...

متن کاملCattle Grazing Effects on Macroinvertebrates in an Oregon Mountain Stream
Cattle grazing effects on aquatic macroinvertebrates were assessed in a 4-year experiment of a mountain stream in northeastern Oregon. From 1996 through 1999, 10 cow–calf pairs were introduced into 6 experimental units along the stream for 42 days between July and September, and effects on aquatic macroinvertebrates were compared with 3 units in which no grazing occurred. Streambank and geomorp...

متن کاملCopper supplementation of grazing cattle using pasture topdressing and individual animal treatment
Three methods of copper supplementation were compared in 9to 15-month-old Friesian bulls on a farm with a history of copper deficiency. A group of 60 bulls grazed 19 ha which had been topdressed in May with 120 kg copper sulphate (6.3 kg/ha). Five of the bulls were identified for repeated sample collection. A second group of 60 bulls grazed an untreated area and five of these were each given a ...
