Feeding Characteristics of Round-Bale Silages
Despite some production issues associated with preservation of forages as roundbale silage, potential benefits with respect to minimizing DM loss and preserving forage quality compared with traditional hay preservation systems are well documented. Less information is available regarding the feeding value of forages preserved in this manner. This paper attempts to address issues associated with ...
متن کاملRound-bale feeder design affects hay waste and economics during horse feeding.
Many horse owners find round bales convenient, less labor intensive, and more affordable than other hay types, but report an inability to control horse BW gain and excessive hay waste. The objectives were to compare hay waste, hay intake, and payback of 9 round-bale feeders and a no-feeder control when used during horse feeding. Nine round-bale feeders were tested: Cinch Net, Cone, Covered Crad...
متن کاملSubstrate properties of stable fly (Diptera: Muscidae) developmental sites associated with round bale hay feeding sites in eastern Nebraska.
Residues at sites where stationary feeders were used to provide hay as supplemental forage for cattle during the winter are developmental substrates for immature stable flies, Stomoxys calcitrans (L.), in the central United States. Spatial patterns in physical (substrate depth, temperature, water content), chemical (pH, electrical conductivity [EC(lab)], total nitrogen [N] and carbon [C], ammon...
متن کاملUtilization of Round Bale Silage as a Compliment to Hay Production
A demonstration was conducted to examine the stored forage yield and stored forage quality of two different hay forage management systems. The forage management systems were a hay harvest only system or a complimentary hayround bale silage harvest system. The hay system harvested bermudagrass forage as hay during the summer when weather conditions allowed, the complimentary system harvested ber...
متن کاملConcentrations of fecal bacteria and nutrients in soil surrounding round-bale feeding sites.
An experiment was conducted over 7 mo (January to July 2003) to evaluate fecal bacteria and nutrient concentrations in soil surrounding round-bale feeders at 10 winter feeding sites. Soil samples 15 cm in depth were taken monthly from each site at distances of 3, 12, 21, and 30 m from the feeder. Soil samples were taken before livestock access to the sites (January), during the feeding period (...
