Ammonium Chloride and Ammonium Sulfate in Cattle Feedlot Finishing Rations
T WO levels of ammonium chloride or of ammonium sulfate were added to the rations of commercial feeder cattle. The rations were made isonitrogenous, essentially isocaloric and to contain the same level of calcium, phosphorus and salt. Total gains were essentially the same for all lots, varying only 15.6 lb (7.1 kg) over a 112 day feeding period. Feed conversion was increased only on the ration ...
متن کاملGrain Finishing Beef: Alternative Rations, Cattle Performance and Feeding Costs for Small Feeders
Introduction Even though many of the cattle finished in the United States are fed in large feedlots there are still many small finishing operations that lack the equipment and facilities of commercial feedlots and there are individuals that have an interest in fattening their own beef; 4-H projects or locker beef are prime examples.

متن کاملProtein and selenium levels for growing and finishing beef cattle.
Two feedlot studies were conducted with 96 Hereford steers to assess the relationship be:ween selenium adequacy and protein requirements of growing and finishing cattle. The first study was a 98-day growing trial with feeder steers as they gained from 230 to 340 kilograms. Diets contained 55% corn silage (dry matter basis) with shelled corn and were supplemented with soybean meal and sodium sel...
متن کاملUsing Distillers Grains in Dairy Cattle Rations
Distillers grains are co-products produced from the fermentation of grains for alcohol. Traditionally, alcohol was produced mainly for the beverage liquor industry, but in the last 20 years its use as an alternative fuel has increased significantly. This increased demand has led to the development of several ethanol production plants in Minnesota and the surrounding area. In 1996, it is estimat...
متن کاملFeeding Wheat to Finishing Cattle
cyclical, and is historically dependent on factors affecting world supply and demand for wheat as a human foodstuff. Wheat generally becomes economically feasible to feed when the price per bushel is 108–115% that of corn, as a result of higher bushel weight and protein concentration. This generalized value is somewhat of a “moving target” as numerous factors affect the ability to utilize wheat...
