The Nutritional Knowledge, Food Choices, And Exercise Habits Of Students At Langston University, Preston Solomon

Poor health in America today is an ever present reality. Heart disease, cancer, diabetes mellitus, cerebrovascular diseases, renal diseases, and pulmonary diseases are causes of death related in part to lack of nutritional knowledge and poor eating and exercise habits.

Feed costs are the cow/calf producer's greatest expense in producing a weaned calf. To remain competitive, cow/calf operators must use economical feeding programs. It is important to match the available feed resources with the nutrient requirements of the first-calf-heifer and cow. Both over- and underfeeding the cow herd can lead to high production costs.

Nutrient requirements for heifers calving as 2-year-olds and cows calving as 3-year-olds and older are shown in Table I. Beef cows are seldom fed complete rations where ingredients are weighed daily. Generally, most of a cow's ration is forages such as: 1) summer and winter range, …

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Serious horse producers are concerned about their mares' reproductive performance and ability to mother strong, healthy foals. Economic survival often hinges on mares foaling early in the year, rebreeding quickly and nursing a growing foal that develops soundly. While achieving these goals in a herd of brood mares is dependent upon many factors, nutritional well-being is one important part of an effective brood mare operation.

Brood mares have specific nutritional requirments that differ from other classes of horses. There are differences both in the amount of feed mares need and in the nutrient concentration needed in taht feed. Therefore, the …
