Comparison Of Yearling Steer Gains In Early Summer Under Season-Long Native, Season-Long Crested Wheatgrass And June-Deferred Native Grazing Systems, P.S. Johnson, J. J. Wagner, M. J. Goetz, J. Cantrell Jan 1989

Comparison Of Yearling Steer Gains In Early Summer Under Season-Long Native, Season-Long Crested Wheatgrass And June-Deferred Native Grazing Systems, P.S. Johnson, J. J. Wagner, M. J. Goetz, J. Cantrell

South Dakota Beef Report, 1989

Season-long native, season-long crested wheatgrass and June-deferred native grazing systems were compared with regard to average daily gains, gains per acre and total gains. Due to drought conditions, the typical 4-month spring-summer season was reduced to a season of approximately 2 months beginning in June. Few differences were detected between the systems for ADG in each month or over the season. Gains per acre were greatest (P<.05) on crested wheatgrass pastures (33.75 Ib/acre), but no differences were detected between native pastures (1 0.61 -1 6.61 Ib/acre) regardless of whether they had been grazed for 2 months or one (using similar stocking rates). This study indicates that, using weight gain data from 1989 and a 2-month grazing season, the greatest potential gain for the season is realized with a system where cattle graze crested wheatgrass in June and native pastures in July. If this system was applied on 320 acres crested wheatgrass and 640 acres excellent condition native pasture, it would have the potential to produce approximately 23,196 Ib of gain on yearling steers compared with season-long (June-July) production of 9,408 Ib on @I0 acres and 14,112 Ib on 960 acres native pasture.

Effects Of Restricting Intake On Carcass Traits Of Young Steers, R. H. Pritchard, D. H. Gee, M. R. Robbins Jan 1989

Effects Of Restricting Intake On Carcass Traits Of Young Steers, R. H. Pritchard, D. H. Gee, M. R. Robbins

South Dakota Beef Report, 1989

Feedlot performance and carcass characteristics were compared when steer calves were fed energy dense diets ad libitum (AL) or restricted (RI) to achieve constant growth rates. AL steers grew more rapidly (P.e.10) than RI steers, 2.93 vs 2.74 Ib per head per day. For the period from 98 days to slaughter (AL = 89 days, RI = 99 days), AL steers consumed more dry matter daily than Rl steers. Restricting intake did not affect feed conversions or total dry matter consumed while in the feedlot. Steers were slaughtered at similar final weights. Intake level did not affect carcass weight, rib …


Estrous Synchronization Of Heifers Using Mga And Prostaglandin: Ranch Results, T. B. Goehring Jan 1989

Estrous Synchronization Of Heifers Using Mga And Prostaglandin: Ranch Results, T. B. Goehring

South Dakota Beef Report, 1989

total of 315 yearling heifers were exposed to an estrous synchronization program which consisted of feeding MGA for 14 consecutive days (.5 mg per head per day), followed by a prostaglandin injection 17 days after the last day of MGA feeding. Two hundred forty-seven (78%) of the heifers were detected in heat and artifically inseminated within 5 days after the prostagllandin injection. Response rate ranged from 75 to 84% between ranches and years.


Comparison Of Melengestrol Acetate And Prostaglandin With Two Injections Of Prostaglandin For Estrous Synchronization In Beef Heifers, H. L. Miller, J. J. Wagner, R. L. Hanson Jan 1989

Comparison Of Melengestrol Acetate And Prostaglandin With Two Injections Of Prostaglandin For Estrous Synchronization In Beef Heifers, H. L. Miller, J. J. Wagner, R. L. Hanson

South Dakota Beef Report, 1989

Crossbred beef heifers were used to compare conception rate when synchronizing estrus with melengestrol acetate (MGA) and prostaglandin or two injections of prostaglandin. Melengestrol acetate was fed to one group of heifers for 16 days and prostaglandin injected 16 days after MGA removal or two injections of prostaglandin given 11 days apart in the other group. The MGA group had a higher conception rate (Pc.05) to timed Al, but there was no difference between the two groups for the breeding season. It appears MGA with prostaglandin results in increased conception to a timed insemination.

Evaluation Of Controlled Release Chromic Oxide Boluses And Alkaline Peroxide Lignin As Marker Methods To Determine Forage Intake Of Grazing Ruminants, P.A. Momont, R. J. Pruitt, R. H. Pritchard Jan 1989

Evaluation Of Controlled Release Chromic Oxide Boluses And Alkaline Peroxide Lignin As Marker Methods To Determine Forage Intake Of Grazing Ruminants, P.A. Momont, R. J. Pruitt, R. H. Pritchard

South Dakota Beef Report, 1989

Twenty Hampshire ram lambs used in a digestibility trial were administered controlled release chromic oxide intraruminal boluses to evaluate chromic oxide and alkaline peroxide lignin in combination as potential markers for determining intake of ruminants grazing dormant winter range. Lambs were fed ad libitum mature prairie grass hay and provided .1 Ib crude protein from one of four supplements. The ability to predict fecal output using chromic oxide boluses and diet digestibility using alkaline peroxide lignin were not affected by supplemental treatments. Chromic oxide concentration in the feces was not affected by the time of sampling. The amount of chromium …


Moderate Versus High Protein Diets For Finishing Yearling Steers, J.J. Wagner, R. Hansen Jan 1989

Moderate Versus High Protein Diets For Finishing Yearling Steers, J.J. Wagner, R. Hansen

South Dakota Beef Report, 1989

Sixty-four yearling crossbred steers (864 Ib) were utilized to study moderate versus high protein finishing diets. Diets were formulated to contain 11.25 or 12.25% crude protein on a dry matter basis. Differences observed for all performance and carcass traits were not significant. Steers on the 11.25 and 12.25% crude protein diets consumed 22.29 and 22.26 Ib dry matter per head daily, gained 2.83 and 2.90 Ib per head daily and required 7.91 and 7.69 Ib dry matter per pound of gain, respectively. Diets formulated to contain 11.25% crude protein appear adequate for finishing heavy yearlings.

Determinants Of Infant Feeding Practices : A Preliminary Ethnographic Study In Rural Nigeria, Saba Mebrahtu

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis examines qualitative data on cropping systems (crop production, processing, and marketing), intra-household dynamics (gender labor allocation and decision making), and infant feeding behaviors (perceptions of infant nutrition and health, and infant feeding practices). This report is based on a three-month ethnographic assessment of 54 households and 18 key informants. It is the preliminary phase of a seven-month, semi-longitudinal, quantitative project investigating relationships between cropping patterns, household time allocation, and infant nutrition. This preliminary ethnography was undertaken by the author and two field assistants, from February to April 1987, in rural Oyo and Kwara, Nigeria. Infant mortality is high …

Whole Farm Analysis Of Low-Input Sustainable Farming Systems Using An Extension Farm Financial Management Package, Mark Leddy, Thomas Dobbs, Burton Pflueger

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

Farmers in recent years have been faced with economic hardships and an increasing awareness of the environmental impacts of conventional farming practices. These factors have led many farmers to consider "alternative" farming methods and practices to replace conventional farming practices. "Alternative" systems include those going by a variety of labels, not all of which always mean the same thing. Terms used include regenerative sustainable, low-input, and organic, among others. A recently established research and education program of the U.S. Department of Agriculture uses the term "low-input/sustainable agriculture" ("LISA"). The LISA program contrasts conventional and alternative or low-input/sustainable farming systems in …


Feeding Programs For Newly Arrived Or Recently Weaned Calves, John J. Wagner, John U. Thomson, Roland Hanson Nov 1988

Feeding Programs For Newly Arrived Or Recently Weaned Calves, John J. Wagner, John U. Thomson, Roland Hanson

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Fall is a stressful time for calves. They are generally weaned at this time. Following weaning, they are often transported or moved to a sale barn or unfamiliar facility. Upon arrival, they may be mixed with other cattle, subjected to processing and forced to eat unfamiliar feeds. In addition, all of these stresses may be compounded by foul weather. To combat the negative impacts of stress cattlemen should strive to get new calves on feed as rapidly as possible. Proper nutrition and a consistent health program are essential when starting calves on feed. Proper nutrition is important from two standpoints. …
