Although feed intake and efficiency differences in growing cattle of low and high residual feed intake (RFI) classification have been established, little is known about the difference in grazed forage intake between beef cows of known RFI classification. Two experiments were conducted using Hereford cows for which RFI had been determined as heifers using the GrowSafe 4000E feed intake system, a...

The objective this research was to determine the effect of application of multiple grazing management practices at 2 stocking rates (SR) on the productivity and economics of the cow-calf enterprise in the Southeastern United States over a 4-yr period. Pasture management systems included: continuous grazing management at a moderate SR (0.8 ha/cow; CG) without additional forage management, rotati...

this research was conducted on determination of better planting distance and better amount of nitrogen and phosphorus for hybrid rice (bahar 1). planting distance were used in this experiment, include 30×15, 30×20 and 30×25 cm as main factor. and also nitrogen fertilizer was used, include four levels, 65, 95, 125 and 155 k/ha and phosphorus fertilizer used include tow levels, 50 and 100 k/ha as...

To quantify the effect of a reduction in nitrogen fertilizer on grass intake and animal performance, four zero-grazing experiments were carried out, two in spring /early summer and two in late summer. Grass was fertilized at three levels of N fertilizer, 450, 300 and 150 kg/ha per year and harvested daily at dry matter yields between 1500 and 2000 kg/ha. Grass was fed ad libitum to three groups...

for use in sustainable forage-livestock production systems in the southern Great Plain region. Stocker cattle production in portions of southern Great Plains Pigeonpea is a summer legume crop grown for grain depends on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and warm-season perennial grasses. Nutrient supply is limited in both quantity and quality from in the tropics and subtropics. The crop ranks sixth i...

Pastures of Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon, BG), Caucasian bluestem (Bothriochloa caucasica, CBS), and gamagrass (Tripsacum dactyloides, GG) were evaluated from the perspectives of forage composition, selection during grazing, and N metabolism in beef steers. All pastures were fertilized with 78 kg/ha of N approximately 60 and 30 d before sample collection. In 2000 and 2001, 12 steers (250 kg o...

In conditions of a shortage manure and high prices for mineral fertilizers, the preservation improvement soil fertility is an urgent problem agriculture. The studies were carried out at Prikumsk experimental selection station in two 6-field crop rotations from 1969 to 2019 purpose research study, long­ term stationary experiment on various nutritional backgrounds, effect grain with clean busy f...

Legumes build soil fertility and contribute substantial amounts of N for sustainability of cereal based cropping systems. These lacking information for the system as a whole in rainfed pothwar were investigated through field experiments at two different locations i.e. (Research farm of University of Arid Agriculture Rawalpindi, UAAR and farmer’s fields in Chakwal district). Mung bean (Var. NM-9...
