Effect Of Fertilization And Management On The Production Of Bromegrass In Northeast Nebraska, G. W. Rehm, W. J. Moline, E. J. Schwartz, R. S. Moomaw

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

Several experiments were conducted in northeast Nebraska to determine the effect of fertility and management practices on the production of smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss). The effectiveness of the various fertilizer treatments was measured in units of dry matter produced per acre as well as beef produced per acre. Results of these studies showed that the production of bromegrass pastures in Nebraska could be markedly improved through proper fertilization.

Second Specimen Of Oryzomys Dimidiatus, Hugh H. Genoways, J. Knox Jones Jr.

University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers

The species Oryzomys dimidiatus was originally named and described by Thomas (Annals of the Museum of Natural History, series 7, 15: 584-591, 1905) as a member of the genus Nectomys on the basis of a single specimen from the Rio Escondido, 7 miles below Rama, Nicaragua (approximately 1 km. S and 8½ km. E Ranla, 20 m, Zelaya), obtained by W. G. Palmer on November 5, 1904. Although there has been speculation on the relationships of this taxon (currently regarded as the only member of the subgenus Micronectmays, genus Oryzomys--see Hershkovitz, Journal of Mammalogy, 51: 789-794, 1970, …

Levels Of Diethylstilbestrol And Types Of Protein Supplements In Ground Ear Corn Diets For Finishing Cattle, L. B. Embry

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1971

Results of numerous experiments have shown that diethylstilbestrol at 10 mg. daily in the feed of implanted at 30 to 36 mg. improves weight gains and feed efficiency of feedlot cattle. More recently it has been reported that feeding more than 10 mg. daily to heavier cattle results in further stimulation of weight gains and feed efficiency. Feeding of 20 mg. per head daily of diethylstilbestrol is now cleared for feedlot cattle above 750 lb.

Can Beef Quality Be Evaluated?, W. J. Costello, R. J. Berns

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1971

Beef quality is important to the consumer. She wants to serve tender, juicy, tasty beef to her family each time she serves it. If she can consistently serve quality beef, she will serve beef frequently. If she finds that she cannot consistently serve quality beef cuts, she will serve something else. For that reason, beef quality becomes important to every one along the production line between the brood cow and the consumer.

Pine Sawdust As A Roughage Replacement In Cattle Finishing Diets, A. L. Slyter, L. D. Kamstra

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1971

Two lots of 12 heifers each were full fed daily one of two diets for 115 days to study the effect of sawdust replacement of ground alfalfa in a finishing diet on the performance and carcass characteristics of beef heifers. Diet composition is shown in table 1. Trace mineral salt and dicalcium phosphate were provided free choice.

Value Of Shelter For Growing And Finishing Cattle, L. B. Embry, R. M. Luther, J. F. Fredrikson

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1971

In an experiment which involved a study of sulfur additions to supplements with high levels of urea fed with corn silage and with ground ear corn silage and with ground ear corn, four diet treatments were replicated with inside or outside feeding. Results for this aspect of the experiment are summarized for this report.

Relative Position Of Farmer-Feeders In The Increasingly Competitive Cattle Feeding Business, D. G. Cox

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1971

Farmer-feeders can potentially compete with anyone in the cattle feeding business. They have traditionally had many built-in advantages. By feeding the cattle on the farm where the grain and roughage are grown, drying, handling, shrinkage and transportation costs are reduced, and returns can be increased per acre by being able to market roughages and silages through cattle. In addition, there are fewer people obtaining a profit out of both the cattle and the feed when cattle are fed at the source of the feed. Another plus factor that will become increasingly important is that pollution is not as big a …

Feedlot Herd Health Program, James H. Bailey

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1971

The first two weeks in the feedlot are the most critical for cattle. Respiratory diseases are most apt to show up during the time the cattle are making adjustments to their new environment, feeding practices, etc. The effects of stress before and during shipping become evident at this time.

Nutritional Quality Control And Feedbunk Management Of Feedlot Cattle, Donald Gill

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1971

Small errors in the nutrition and management of feedlot cattle frequently spell the difference between success and failure as a cattle feeder. Some frequently insignificant appearing factors may at times allow cost of gain to increase up to $4 to $5 per hundredweight.

Performance Of Calves Fed Chlortetracycline-Sulfamethazine During Feedlot Adaptation Followed By Chlortetracycline, P. J. Thiex, L. B. Embry

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1971

This experiment was conducted to determine the effects of supplementing calves with a chlortetracycline-sulfamethazine combination for 4 weeks following weaning. Chlortetracycline was then fed at 70 mg. daily during a growing phase when the calves were fed a high-roughage diet.

Complying With Feed Additive And Drug Withdrawl Periods, D. G. Fox, J. H. Bailey

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1971

Most drugs are accumulated in excretory organs such as the kidneys and liver , and they are found in higher levels for a longer time in these organs than in other tissue. Due to a continuous excretion of the drugs from these organs, tissue levels are usually rapidly reduced after the drug is no longer fed or injected. The rate of excretion of a drug and its end products from animal tissues must be established before it can be considered for approval by the Food and Drug Administration. Then withdrawal periods that are sufficiently long enough to permit complete or …

Pine Sawdust As A Roughage Replacement In Feeder Cattle Diets, A. L. Slyter, L. D. Kamstra

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1971

Eight lots, five or six heifers each, (42 heifers total) were fed one of four diets for 119 days to study the effect of sawdust inclusion in a growing diet on the performance of feeder calves. The diets were alfalfa-concentrate, sawdust-concentrate, corn silage and sawdust silage. (See table 1 for specific diet composition). Trace mineral salt and dicalcium phosphate were fed free choice and vitamin A was supplemented to provide a calculated 10,000 to 12,000 I.U. per head per day. Brome-alfalfa loose hay was provided for the first week during adaptation to the experimental diets.
