Use of feed additives to improve feed efficiency and growth of feedlot cattle

نویسندگان

چکیده

The producers must observe feed efficiency (FE) and profitability in feedlot cattle under scenarios of high production costs associated with feeding. most efficient persistant way to change FE is using genetic tools. However, selection slow compared the use addititves, which work stabilize ruminal pH, induce beneficial changes rumen microbial population, increase energy protein metabolism. literature extensive about antibiotics, ionophores, non-ionophores increasing FE. Nowadays, "naturals" products as growth promoters has gained great relevance, promising results been reported. ). Therefore, this study aimed review additives beef

Manipulating grain processing method and roughage level to improve feed efficiency in feedlot cattle.

The effects of feeding finishing diets containing whole corn with no roughage on performance and carcass characteristics of feedlot steers were evaluated in 6 trials conducted at commercial research facilities (Bos Technica Research Services Inc., Salina, KS) in the Southern Plains of the United States. One hundred and two feedlot pens containing 6,895 steers were represented. All trials were d...

Growth Performance and Feed Conversion Efficiency of Crossbred Heifers

Theexperiment was conducted to investigate the growth performance and feed conversion efficiency of crossbred heifer at different age level in Government Dairy Farm in Bogra, Bangladesh. Twelve female crossbred heifers were equally distributed (n=3) into four groups [Group A: (7±2 months), B: (12±2 months), C: (15±2 months) and D: (20±2 months)] according to age and fed concentrate mix, rice st...

Feed additives.

Feed additives used to supplement dairy rations can increase daily feed cost from 2 to 65 per animal. The economic response (benefit to cost ratio) varies from $2.00 to $12.00 for each dollar invested in a specific additive. Knowledgeable dairy veterinarians must understand the role of each additive, when it will be beneficial, inclusion level, strategies and limitations associated with an addi...

Primary genome scan to identify putative quantitative trait loci for feedlot growth rate, feed intake, and feed efficiency of beef cattle.

Feed intake and feed efficiency of beef cattle are economically relevant traits. The study was conducted to identify QTL for feed intake and feed efficiency of beef cattle by using genotype information from 100 microsatellite markers and 355 SNP genotyped across 400 progeny of 20 Angus, Charolais, or Alberta Hybrid bulls. Traits analyzed include feedlot ADG, daily DMI, feed-to-gain ratio [F:G, ...
