Lamb performance in hardwood silvopastures, II: animal behavior in summer1

Animal Behavior & Well Being II

A high rate of gain in dairy heifers for #8805 3 mo is detrimental to prepubertal mammary growth and subsequent milk yield. However, the effects of a high rate of gain for shorter periods have not been reported. Our objective was to compare effects of high (1200 g/d) and low (600 g/d) rates of gain over different lengths of time (0, 3, 6, 12 wk) on body and mammary growth. Heifers (age = 11 wk,...

Lamb Wave Behavior in Bridge Girder Geometries

Lamb waves in plates and in cylindrical pipes have been the subject of extensive study, largely because they propagate great distances with little attenuation, and can therefore be used to detect flaws. In this paper we report finite element simulations and experimental studies of Lamb waves in steel bridge girder geometries. In our studies the Lamb waves are generated by PZT wafer-type transdu...

Lamb performance from grazed grass in 2013

In mid-season prime lamb production it is essential to optimise lamb performance from grazed pasture to minimise costs and so improve margins from sheep production. This is achieved by continuously supplying high feed value herbage for the duration of the grazing season. Feed value is a combination of nutritive value (i.e. digestibility) and intake characteristics (which is a combination of her...
