Crossbred beef steers (n = 312) were used in an experiment with a completely randomized design during the growing (235 ± 1.6 kg initial BW) and finishing (363 ± 2.7 kg) phase to determine the effects of dietary CP concentration and rumen degradability on NH3-N emissions, growth performance, and carcass traits. Diets were barley based and consisted of 55% silage and 45% concentrate in the backgr...
