Ef®cacy of chromium-yeast supplementation for growing beef steers
This experiment was conducted to determine the ef®cacy of feeding chromium yeast to growing beef steers. Animal growth, gain ef®ciency, and blood glucose kinetics were determined in 24 beef steers (initial body weight253 4 kg) fed a corn silage-based diet supplemented with 0 (control), 100, 200, or 400 mg chromium from high-chromium yeast/kg of diet dry matter. Intravenous glucose tolerance te...
متن کاملExtended Grazing and Byproduct Diets in Beef Growing Finishing Systems
Sixty-three cross-bred lambs were randomly assigned to one of seven treatments according to a 2 × 3 + 1 factorial design (Table 1). There were two byproduct diets: one, a wet corn gluten feed which is a blend of 1/3 steep liquor/distiller solubles and 2/3 corn bran; and the second diet, where onehalf of the corn bran was replaced with wheat midds. Steep liquor/distiller solubles remained consta...
متن کاملStudies on Feeding Wheat Middlings to Beef Heifers and Growing and Finishing Beef Steers
INTRODUCTION The type and amount of concentrate included in beef cattle diets can greatly influence production and profitability. Small grains are typically fed in these rations, but the inclusion of by-product feeds, such as wheat middlings (WM), in growing and finishing diets have recently been studied (Dalke et al., 1997; Blasi et al., 1998). Wheat middlings are the by-product of the wheat m...
متن کاملPerformance and meat quality of beef steers fed corn-based or bread by-product-based diets.
A feeding trial was conducted with beef breed steers (120) to determine the effects of substituting bread by-product (BBy) for whole shelled corn on performance and meat quality. Chemical analysis of each diet ingredient and in vitro rates of digestion from gas production of BBy and corn were determined to provide accurate information for diet evaluations using the 1996 Beef NRC Model Level 2. ...
متن کاملProtein and selenium levels for growing and finishing beef cattle.
Two feedlot studies were conducted with 96 Hereford steers to assess the relationship be:ween selenium adequacy and protein requirements of growing and finishing cattle. The first study was a 98-day growing trial with feeder steers as they gained from 230 to 340 kilograms. Diets contained 55% corn silage (dry matter basis) with shelled corn and were supplemented with soybean meal and sodium sel...
