Use Of Corn Co-Products In Soybean Hull-Based Feedlot Receiving Diets, Chad J. Mueller, Donald L. Boggs
Use Of Corn Co-Products In Soybean Hull-Based Feedlot Receiving Diets, Chad J. Mueller, Donald L. Boggs
South Dakota Beef Report, 2005
The use of different supplemental protein sources with soybean hulls in receiving cattle diets were evaluated using 200 Angus steer calves. Diets contained either corn and soybean meal (C-SBM), or soybean hulls with soybean meal (H-SBM), dried corn gluten feed (H-DCGF) or dried distillers grains plus solubles (H-DDGS). The replacement of corn (C-SBM) with soybean hulls (H-SBM) stimulated intake within the first 14 d of the receiving period and throughout the entire growing period (52 d). Supplementing soybean hulls with corn origin protein (COP) versus soybean meal did not result in any performance differences throughout the feeding period. Within the …

The SDSU Cow/Calf Unit (CCU) provides cattle and facilities for numerous Animal Science and Range Science classes and a variety of research projects. The CCU also provides cattle for the SDSU Little International, Block & Bridle Club activities, numerous judging team workouts, and other activities that bring potential students to the SDSU campus. Kevin VanderWal and Anna Drew along with part-time student employees, manage the herd, collect research data, and assist with numerous beef cattle activities throughout the year.
Effectiveness Of Dried Distillers Grains With Solubles As A Replacement For Oilseed Meal In Supplements For Cattle Consuming Poor Quality Forage, Heidi Doering-Resch, Cody Wright, Kent Tjardes, George Perry, Kelly Bruns, Bradley Rops
Effectiveness Of Dried Distillers Grains With Solubles As A Replacement For Oilseed Meal In Supplements For Cattle Consuming Poor Quality Forage, Heidi Doering-Resch, Cody Wright, Kent Tjardes, George Perry, Kelly Bruns, Bradley Rops
South Dakota Beef Report, 2005
A two-year study was conducted at the South Dakota State University Southeast Research Farm in Beresford, SD, to determine the effects of feeding supplemental dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) on the performance of mid-gestation and non-gestating, non-lactating beef cows. Ninety-six gestating beef cows (initial BW = 1276.4 ± 22.2; initial BCS = 4.7 ± 0.09) and 96 non-gestating, non-lactating beef cows (initial BW = 1214.0 ± 20.8; initial BCS = 5.4 ± 0.10) were used for year 1 and year 2, respectively. Cows were stratified by weight and allocated to one of 15 pens. Pens were then randomly assigned …
