Comparative feeding value of steam-flaked triticale as a replacement for steam-flaked corn in finishing diets for feedlot cattle

Influence of Protein Supplementation on the Feeding Value of Dry Rolled and Steam-Flaked Corn in Diets for Feedlot Cattle

Eighty medium-framed yearling crossbreed heifers (357 kg) were used in a 110-d trial to evaluate the influence of dietary protein level (11 vs 14%) on the feeding value of dry rolled (DRC) and steam-flaked corn (SFC). All diets contained 1% urea, cottonseed meal (CSM) was the source of supplemental UIP. Steam flaking corn reduced DMI (9%, P < .10), and increased (P < .01) feed efficiency (14%),...

Comparative feeding value of steam-flaked corn and sorghum in finishing diets supplemented with or without sodium bicarbonate.

A feedlot growth-performance trial involving 64 yearling steers and a metabolism trial involving four steers with cannulas in the rumen, proximal duodenum, and distal ileum were conducted to evaluate the comparative feeding value of steam-flaked corn (SFC, density = .30 kg/liter) and sorghum (SFS, density = .36 kg/liter) in finishing diets supplemented with or without .75% sodium bicarbonate (B...

Crude Protein and Wet Corn Gluten Feed Levels for Steam Flaked Corn Finishing Diets

Influence of processing method on comparative digestion of white corn versus conventional steam-flaked yellow dent corn in finishing diets for feedlot cattle.

Four Holstein steers (137 ± 2 kg) with cannulas in the rumen and proximal duodenum were used in a 4 × 4 Latin square design to evaluate the influence of processing method on comparative digestion of white corn. Treatments consisted of a basal finishing diet containing 80% corn grain (DM basis) as 1) dry-rolled white corn (DRWC), 2) steam-flaked white corn (SFWC) with 0.36 kg/L flake density (SF...

Effects of feeding combinations of steam-flaked grain sorghum and steam-flaked, high-moisture, or dry-rolled corn on growth performance and carcass characteristics in feedlot cattle.

The objective of these two feeding trials was to determine the associative effects of feeding steam-flaked grain sorghum (SFGS) in combination with steam-flaked (SFC), dry-rolled (DRC), or high-moisture (HMC) corn on growth performance and carcass characteristics in feedlot cattle. In Trial 1, 200 yearling heifers were blocked by weight, allotted to 25 pens, and fed one of five finishing diets ...
