Detecting Shifts In Soil Microbial Community Structure And Function Post Landspread Of Manure Or Biosolids Containing Antimicrobial Chemicals, Kelly Lehnert, Sharon A. Clay, Susan Gibson, Volker Brozel Nov 2007

Detecting Shifts In Soil Microbial Community Structure And Function Post Landspread Of Manure Or Biosolids Containing Antimicrobial Chemicals, Kelly Lehnert, Sharon A. Clay, Susan Gibson, Volker Brozel

Agronomy, Horticulture and Plant Science Faculty Publications

Soil microbial diversity and community interaction play an indispensable role in 2,4-dichorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) herbicide degradation. The addition of manure or municipal waste biosolids through landspreading may alter soil community structure and function if these materials contain antimicrobial chemicals like chlortetracycline (CTC), administered in livestock feed to promote animal growth and health or tetracycline (TET) utilized in human health. In this study, soil applied with manure collected from pigs fed standard CTC levels was compared to soil containing manure from control pigs fed no CTC, and a comparison of soil applied with biosolids containing TET or without TET to distinguish …

Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences Faculty Publications

Although commonly associated with infection in cattle, bovine viral diarrhea viruses (BVDV) also replicate in many domestic and wildlife species, including cervids. Bovine viral diarrhea viruses have been isolated from a number of cervids, including mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), European roe deer (Capreolus capreolus), red deer (Cervus elaphus), white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), and mouse deer (Tragulus javanicus), but little information is available regarding clinical presentation and progression of infection in these species. In preliminary studies of experimental infection of deer with BVDV, researchers noted seroconversion but no clinical signs. In this study, we infected white-tailed deer fawns that were negative …

Effects Of The Environment On The Nutritional Needs Of Grazing Livestock, Alvaro Garcia, Cody Wright Sep 2007

Effects Of The Environment On The Nutritional Needs Of Grazing Livestock, Alvaro Garcia, Cody Wright

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Profitability of grazing operations is related to productivity per acre. Productivity is determined, among other factors, by the efficiency with which the animal harvests the forage. Efficiency can be defined as nutrients consumed per unit of product produced (feed to gain). Costs incurred in this process which are not translated into products are sources of inefficiencies. Costs are not only related to dollars spent by livestock producers but also to nutrient inputs and outputs (balance) incurred by an animal. Just as in your bank account, the animal has a budget in his body with accretions and withdrawals, and when one …

Efectos Del Medio Ambiente Sobre Los Requerimientosnutricionales Del Ganado En Pastoreo, Alvaro Garcia, Cody Wright

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

La rentabilidad de los establecimientos basados en un Sistema pastoril está relacionada con su productividad por unidad de superficie. La productividad es determinada, entre otros factores, por la eficiencia con la cual el animal cosecha el forraje. La eficiencia puede definirse como los nutrientes consumidos por unidad de producto generado (alimento a ganancia de peso). Los costos incurridos en este proceso que no se traducen en productos son fuentes de ineficiencias. Los costos no están sólo relacionados al dinero gastado por el productor ganadero sino también a los nutrientes insumos y productos (balance) incurridos por el animal. Tal como en …

Heat Stress, Fairs, And Achievement Days: Animal Considerations, Russ Daly Aug 2007

Heat Stress, Fairs, And Achievement Days: Animal Considerations, Russ Daly

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Animals shown at achievement days and fairs may be at increased risk for heat stress compared to their counterparts left at home. Transporting, showing, and handling in hot and humid weather may predispose animals to heat stress and possibly serious health consequences. With the exception of horses, animals shown at fairs and achievement days (cattle, dogs and cats, pigs, poultry, rabbits, sheep and goats) do not perspire and cannot regulate body temperature that way. If conditions are hot and humid, their body temperatures will peak in late afternoon and early evening hours. The most important way to reduce the risk …

Effects Of Shipping And Heat Stress On Embryonic Mortality In Cattle, Sarah Fields, George Perry Jun 2007

Effects Of Shipping And Heat Stress On Embryonic Mortality In Cattle, Sarah Fields, George Perry

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Embryonic loss is the greatest economic loss in the cow/calf industry, affecting number of cows carrying to term and percent calf crop weaned. Fertilization rates are usually between 90% and 100% when semen is present at ovulation. Fertilization usually takes place, but conception rates (number of animals that conceive divided by number of animals inseminated) are usually around 70% for natural service or artificial insemination. Although nature (poor oocyte quality, disease, chromosomal abnormalities, etc.) contributes much of this loss, management practices can also increase embryonic mortality. Stress, particularly heat and shipping stress, can be detrimental to embryos and decrease pregnancy …

Managing Smooth Bromegrass Pastures In South Dakota, Eric M. Mousel, Alexander J. Smart May 2007

Managing Smooth Bromegrass Pastures In South Dakota, Eric M. Mousel, Alexander J. Smart

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Smooth bromegrass is a cool-season grass introduced into the U.S. in the latter part of the 19th century. Because of its highly developed root system, smooth bromegrass is resistant to wide temperature extremes and extensive drought. This resistance has allowed it to become a dominant species in pastures and on native rangeland in eastern and central South Dakota. It is a leafy and sod-forming perennial that spreads aggressively through seeds and rhizomes and establishes well on deep, well-drained silt, clay loam, or sandy soils (Fig 1).

Cottonwood And Antelope Range Livestock Research Stations Unit Report, Kenneth C. Olson Jan 2007

Cottonwood And Antelope Range Livestock Research Stations Unit Report, Kenneth C. Olson

South Dakota Beef Report, 2007

Two research stations, the Cottonwood and Antelope Range Livestock Research Stations, are located in western South Dakota that allow research projects focused on needs of range livestock producers in that region. The stations are comprised primarily of native rangeland that is grazed by cattle at both stations, and also by sheep at Antelope. The philosophy of the research efforts has been focused on conducting applied research to solve problems and address rangeland and livestock management opportunities relevant to the livestock producers and land mangers of the region.

Evaluation Of Mixing Characteristics Of Diets Containing Modified Distillers Grains, Erik R. Loe, Bradley D. Rops, John T. Keimig Jan 2007

Evaluation Of Mixing Characteristics Of Diets Containing Modified Distillers Grains, Erik R. Loe, Bradley D. Rops, John T. Keimig

South Dakota Beef Report, 2007

Six mixes of feed were manufactured and analyzed to determine how sequence of ingredient addition into a feed mixer influences mixing characteristics when modified distillers grains (mDG) was used as a feed ingredient. Five mixes were manufactured using a 3-bar rotor mixer and one mix was manufactured using a staggered-rotor mixer. There were three diet types evaluated: 1) high-forage receiving diet; 2) high-grain finishing diet with ground grass hay (GH) as the roughage source; and 3) high-grain finishing diet with silage as the roughage source. Five samples were collected from each mix and were analyzed for particle size and nutrient …

The Effect Of Gnrh At Time Of Insemination On Initiation Of Lh Pulses And Subsequent Progesterone, Sarah D. Fields, Brandy L. Perry, George A. Perry Jan 2007

The Effect Of Gnrh At Time Of Insemination On Initiation Of Lh Pulses And Subsequent Progesterone, Sarah D. Fields, Brandy L. Perry, George A. Perry

South Dakota Beef Report, 2007

Research has indicated that luteinizing hormone (LH) pulses play a vital role in corpus luteum (CL) formation and subsequent progesterone concentrations. Therefore, our objectives were to determine: 1) when LH pulses begin following onset of estrus, 2) the effect an injection of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) would have on initiation of LH pulses, and 3) the effect LH pulse initiation had on subsequent plasma progesterone concentrations. Cows were synchronized with the Select Synch + Controlled Internal Drug Releasing device (CIDR) protocol (d -7 100 μg GnRH and CIDR; d 0 25 mg prostaglandin (PG) and removal of CIDR; estrus detected …
