Understanding Forage Intake in Range Animals
Both the size and the species of the herbivores on your land affect the amount of forage they eat. For example, using an intake rate of 2.5 percent of body weight at body condition score 5, you would expect a 1,200-pound cow to eat 30 pounds of forage dry matter per day, compared to 25 pounds for a 1,000-pound cow. On the other hand, as a percentage of body weight, small herbivore species have ...
متن کاملInfluence of lasalocid level on forage intake, digestibility, ruminal fermentation, liquid flow and performance of beef cattle grazing winter range.
Three experiments were conducted to study the effects of lasalocid level on performance, intake, digestibility, ruminal fermentation and fluid flow of beef cattle grazing dormant, tallgrass prairie. In Exp. 1, 120 pregnant, mature beef cows of primarily Hereford breeding (avg wt = 471 kg) were randomly assigned to received 0, 100, 200 or 300 mg lasalocid X head-1 X d-1 in 1.82 kg supplement. We...

نتایج این مطالعه نشان می دهد که مقدار کلسیم (یونیزه و تام)، منیزیم و فسفر به طور معنی داری تغییر پیدا کرد به جزء مقدار کلسیم تام و منیزیم در روش داخل عضلانی که تغییر معنی داری نداشته است. بر اساس نتایج این مطالعه می توان نتیجه گیری کرد که اکسی تتراساکلین بر روی مقادیر سرمی کلسیم و منیزیم تأثیر می گذارد باید مقدار این کاتیون ها در بیماران، در هنگامی که اکسی تتراسایکلین استفاده می شود مورد توجه ق...
15 صفحه اولEffects of supplementation on intake, digestion, and performance of beef cattle consuming fertilized, stockpiled bermudagrass forage.
Experiments were conducted to determine the effects of increasing supplement protein concentration on performance and forage intake of beef cows and forage utilization of steers consuming stockpiled bermudagrass forage. Bermudagrass pastures were fertilized with 56 kg of N/ha in late August. Grazing was initiated during early November and continued through the end of January each year. Treatmen...
متن کاملEffect of cattle age, forage level, and corn processing on diet digestibility and feedlot performance.
Three experiments were conducted to determine the effects of cattle age and dietary forage level on the utilization of corn fed whole or ground to feedlot cattle. In Exp. 1, 16 steers were used to investigate the effects of cattle age and corn processing on diet digestibility. Two cattle age categories were evaluated (weanling [254 +/- 20 kg BW] and yearling [477 +/- 29 kg BW]; eight steers per...
