Influence of roughage and grain processing in high-concentrate diets on the performance of long-fed Holstein steers.
The effects of roughage source and timing of inclusion in high-concentrate diets on feedlot performance were evaluated in each of 2 yr with 144 and 120 long-fed Holstein steers, respectively. Roughage, when included in the diet, was delivered in a built-in-roughage (BIR) pellet supplying 15 and 6% roughage (percentage of DM) or hay crop silage (HCS) supplying 7 and 10% roughage (percentage of D...
متن کاملInfluence of feed intake level on site of digestion in steers fed a high concentrate diet.
A high concentrate diet was fed at 1.2, 1.5, 1.8 and 2.1% of body weight to four Angus steers (258 kg) equipped with cannulas in the proximal duodenum and distal ileum. As level of feed intake increased, flow of N, nonammonia N, microbial N and feed N to the small intestine increased linearly (P less than .05). Bypass of feed N increased from 44 to 71% of fed N. At the highest intake level, rum...
متن کاملEffect of Ruminal pH Alteration on Digestion in Steers Fed a High Concentrate Diet
Mature Angus steers were intraruminally infused with base to increase ruminal pH. Base infusions, increasing rumen pH from 5.8 to 6.2, did not change duodenal pH but tended to reduce fecal pH. Increased ruminal pH tended to increase digestion of fiber (9 percent) but reduced ruminal digestion of starch by 18 percent (P> .05). Ruminal pH and ruminal starch digestion were negatively correlated (P...
متن کاملChanges of milk fat, crude protein, true protein, NPN and protein:fat ratio in Holstein cows fed a high concentrate diet from early to late lactation
Percentages and yields of fat, crude protein (CP), true protein (TP) and non-protein nitrogen (NPN) wereassessed in milk of four groups of Holstein cows, at early, mid and late lactation (days in milk 20-70, 71-110, 111-150 and 151-210), on a diet rich in concentrates during a hot summer. Four milk samples were taken from individual cows at 10-day intervals. Milk fat percentages were close to b...
متن کاملEffect of thymol and carvacrol on nutrient digestibility in rams fed high or low concentrate diets
Published data on the effects of essential oils (EO) on in vivo nutrient digestibility in sheep are contradictory. In 2 experiments, the effect of thymol and carvacrol on nutrient digestibility was studied in sheep fed with high (70%) or low (52%) concentrate diets, using incomplete Latin Square designs. The essential oils were mixed with the concentrate portion of the diet at the rate of 0.0, ...
