ALPHARMA Beef Cattle Symposium: Factors Affecting Feedlot Profitability
vide data on ruminal pH (pH = 6.21 ± 0.34), liquid outflow rate (LOR = 12.1 ± 4.0 L/kg DM), and ruminally digested OM (rdOM = 39.5 ± 10.3 % DM). The LOR is an index of buffer recycling/kg DMI and rdOM is an index of VFA production/kg DMI. The compliled data also included dry matter intake (DMI = 2.81 ± .87 % LW) and Acetate/Propionate ratio (A/P = 3.18 ± 0.89). Data were analyzed using GLM proc...
