Effect of whole and rolled corn or barley on growth and carcass quality of lambs.
Lambs were assigned to a 2x2 factorial design with corn or barley fed either whole or rolled. Hay was fed for ad libitum intake while concentrates were fed in similar amounts. Dry matter intake of hay, ADG, the gain:feed ratio, and warm carcass weight (WCW) were higher (P<0.05) for lambs fed corn than for those fed barley. Cereal processing had no effect (P>0.05) on hay dry matter intake, ADG, ...
متن کاملMethane production, digestion, ruminal fermentation, nitrogen balance, and milk production of cows fed corn silage- or barley silage-based diets.
This study evaluated the effects of replacing barley silage (BS) with corn silage (CS) in dairy cow diets on enteric CH4 emissions, ruminal fermentation characteristics, digestion, milk production, and N balance. Nine ruminally cannulated lactating cows were used in a replicated 3 × 3 Latin square design (32-d period) and fed (ad libitum) a total mixed ration (TMR; forage:concentrate ratio 60:4...

The objective of this research was to evaluate the effects of monensin (MON), thyme (THY) and cinnamon (CIN) essential oils on dry matter and crud protein degradability characteristics of cottonseed meal, barley grain and corn silage, nutrient digestibility, and some plasma metabolites in Holstein steers (540 ± 35 kg initial BW) fed high-concentrate diets. Four rumen fistulated Holstein steer...
متن کاملThe effects of a microbial inoculant and formic acid as silage additives on chemical composition, ruminal degradability and nutrient digestibility of corn silage in sheep
The effects of a microbial inoculant (containing propionic and lactic acid bacteria) and formic acid onchemical composition, ruminal degradability of dry matter (DM) and nutrient digestibility of corn silage wereexamined. Whole-plant corn was ensiled for 60 days in plastic polyethylene bags, and three treatments werecompared, 1: control (no additive), 2: Propionibacterium acidipropionici plus L...
متن کاملPerformance of heifers fed a corn silage
A study was conducted using 63 Angus crossbred heifers (234.5 ± 18.97 kg) to compare Distillers Dried Grains with Solubles (DDGS) versus Soybean Meal (SBM) as a supplemental protein source. Animals were assigned to three treatments, which were SBM and two levels of DDGS, fed as a top-dressed supplement. Treatments were formulated to provide .30 kg SBM (12.5% CP, 1.08 Mcal NEg/kg; SBM), .30 kg D...
