A Comparison Of Lifetime Implant Strategies For Beef Steers, Robbi H. Pritchard, Kelly W. Bruns, Donald L. Boggs Jan 2003

A Comparison Of Lifetime Implant Strategies For Beef Steers, Robbi H. Pritchard, Kelly W. Bruns, Donald L. Boggs

South Dakota Beef Report, 2003

Lifetime implant strategies were developed and applied to steer calves. The design was intended for evaluating strategies rather than specific implants. Strategies involving increasing potency of products used at common stages of production. Initial implants were administered when calves were approximately 2 mo of age. Implants did not increase BW at weaning or after backgrounding (P > 0.10) although they did increase ADG 5% over non-implanted controls during backgrounding (P < 0.05). The influence of implants on ADG was more pronounced during the finishing phase of production. Implants increased (P < 0.05) finishing phase ADG 18%, DMI 7.2%, and feed efficiency 9.4%. Overall post-weaning ADG increased 12% (P < 0.05) due to implants. Performance results changed when evaluating data on a live versus carcass weight basis due to differences in dressing percent. Increasing potency of the implant strategies caused progressive increases (P < 0.05) in carcass weight and ribeye area. Implanted steers produced fatter carcasses than did non-implanted steers (P < 0.05). There were no advances in skeletal or lean maturity attributable to the potency of the implant strategy. The frequency of carcasses grading Average Choice or better declined with implants. Implant strategies had no relevant influence on shear force. Overall, 12% of carcasses had a shear force > 5.0 kg (undesirable).

Characterization Of The Beef Cow-Calf Enterprise Of The Northern Great Plains, Barry Dunn, Edward Hamilton, Dick Pruitt Jan 2003

Characterization Of The Beef Cow-Calf Enterprise Of The Northern Great Plains, Barry Dunn, Edward Hamilton, Dick Pruitt

South Dakota Beef Report, 2003

One hundred eighty five privately owned and operated cow-calf enterprises provided production data on their beef cow-calf operations. 0ne hundred and forty eight of those also provided financial information on a modified cost basis. The enterprises were located in the states of South Dakota, Nebraska, Montana, Minnesota, Iowa, Kansas, Wyoming, and North Dakota. The data were collected at the herd level according to Standardized Performance Analysis (SPA) guidelines during the years 1991-1999. By industry standards these operations were large, averaging just over 11,000 acres and 500 beginning year breeding females. They began calving approximately March 1st,, had an average 93% …

Myth In Restorative Justice History, Douglas J. Sylvester Jan 2003

Myth In Restorative Justice History, Douglas J. Sylvester

Utah Law Review

Although history matters, it is not the only thing that matters. Empirical evidence of restorative justice's utility matters as much as, if not more than, restorative justice history-and it seems far less contested. To this end, there is no need for restorative justice to create a "golden age" of past mercy and restoration. The fact that past societies employed criminal justice processes that were simultaneously brutal, illiberal, and class-conscious can be accepted. That these processes may have existed simultaneously with more restorative processes may be accepted-but even these processes, whether victim-oriented, or seeking to restore balance, are nevertheless radically incompatible …

Models With Cytoplasmic Effects For Birth, Weaning, And Fleece Weights, And Litter Size At Birth For A Population Of Targhee Sheep, L. Dale Van Vleck, G. D. Snowder, Kathryn J. Hanford Jan 2003

Models With Cytoplasmic Effects For Birth, Weaning, And Fleece Weights, And Litter Size At Birth For A Population Of Targhee Sheep, L. Dale Van Vleck, G. D. Snowder, Kathryn J. Hanford

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

Fifteen models were compared for the birth weight of 33,994 lambs recorded at the U.S. Sheep Experimental Station (1950 to 1998). The initial intent was to estimate fractions of variance due to cytoplasmic line (c2; n = 892) and sire by cytoplasmic line interaction (sc2; n = 17,557). The basic model included direct genetic (fractional variance, a2; n = 35,684), maternal genetic (m2, with correlation r-am), and maternal permanent environmental (p2; n = 8,418) effects. The model with sc2 was significantly better than the basic model with and without c2. When …

Correlated Response In Placental Efficiency In Swine Selected For An Index Of Components Of Litter Size, H. Mesa, T. J. Safranski, R. K. Johnson, W. R. Lamberson Jan 2003

Correlated Response In Placental Efficiency In Swine Selected For An Index Of Components Of Litter Size, H. Mesa, T. J. Safranski, R. K. Johnson, W. R. Lamberson

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

The objective of this study was to evaluate correlated response in placental efficiency to selection for components of litter size. Fourteen generations of selection had resulted in a difference between lines of three fully formed piglets at birth. Gilts from a line selected for an index of components of litter size (S, n =33) and a randomly selected control (C, n =27) were observed at farrowing. At delivery, the umbilical cord of each piglet was double tagged with identically numbered mouse ear tags to allow the piglet’s weight to be matched to the corresponding placental weight. Litter size, placental weight, …

Increasing The Value Of The Round And Sirloin Through Pre-Rigo Skeletal Separations, Bruce C. Shanks, Duane M. Wulf, Brian J. Reuter, Robert J. Maddock Jan 2003

Increasing The Value Of The Round And Sirloin Through Pre-Rigo Skeletal Separations, Bruce C. Shanks, Duane M. Wulf, Brian J. Reuter, Robert J. Maddock

South Dakota Beef Report, 2003

Thirty crossbred steers were utilized to explore and compare tenderness improvements in beef round and sirloin muscles resulting from various methods of pre-rigor skeletal separations. Animals were slaughtered according to industry procedures and at 60 min postmortem one of six treatments were randomly applied to each side: A) control, B) saw pelvis at the sirloin-round junction, C) separate the pelvic-femur joint, D) saw femur at mid-point, E) combination of B and C, and F) combination of B and D. After 48-h, the following muscles were excised from each side: semimembranosis (SM), biceps femoris (BF-R), semitendinosis (ST), and adductor (AD) from …
