Ua3/3/1 The Economical Approach To Raising Dairy Herd Replacements, With Emphasis On Source Of Protein, Henry Amos, Larry Mutter

WKU Archives Records

Research project with three objectives:

1. To arrive at the approximate dollar cost of raising dairy herd replacements
2. To determine whether it is possible for the young ruminant animal to utilize non-protein nitrogen to meet part of the protein requirement for growth.
3. To attempt to reduce the cost of raising dairy herd replacements to the College Farm by breeding the heifers to calve at 21-24 months of age rather than the system employed in the past which placed heifers in production at 30-36 months of age.
