متن کاملComparisons of Cattle Grazing and Sheep Grazing
Controversy has surrounded the possible differences in pasture production which result from grazing by cattle or sheep. Experiments conducted over the 1972-76 period show that pasture production under grazing by sheep is greater than under grazing by cattle under similar intensive managements. A change from sheep grazing to cattle grazing can cause a rapid deterioration in pasture production, w...
متن کاملSeasonal changes in the digesta-adherent rumen bacterial communities of dairy cattle grazing pasture
The complex microbiota that resides within the rumen is responsible for the break-down of plant fibre. The bacteria that attach to ingested plant matter within the rumen are thought to be responsible for initial fibre degradation. Most studies examining the ecology of this important microbiome only offer a 'snapshot' in time. We monitored the diversity of rumen bacteria in four New Zealand dair...
متن کاملCarrion odor and cattle grazing
Recently, it has been proposed on theoretical grounds that carrion odor from flowers may not only attract pollinators, but also repel mammalian herbivores. Two grazing experiments involving 16 to 26 cattle heads per year, one for eight years (1982-1989) and the other for seven (1994-2000), in a region with no large carnivores that could influence cattle behavior, show that cattle avoid areas wh...
متن کاملRuminant Nutrition: Dairy Cattle
A total of 45 lactating Holstein cows averaging 617 kg of BW were allotted at wk 20 of lactation to 9 groups of 5 cows blocked for similar DIM to determine the effects of feeding different concentrations of flax hulls (FH) on DMI, milk production, milk composition, and digestion. Cows within each block were assigned to one of the 5 isoenergetic TMR containing 0, 5, 10, 15 or 20% FH. The experim...
