Abstract Nowadays due of the world population growth, demand for agricultural products is also growing. To obtain good meat and dairy products, high-quality feed farm animals necessary. Legume-gramineous perennial grass mixtures are used to improve fodder lands. Our experience included a test 9 variants legume-gramineous mixtures, where 6 types grasses were used: red clover, alfalfa (legumes), ...

In this work, a 316L stainless steel to Inconel 625 functionally graded material (FGM) was built using different deposition strategies (named as direct and smooth-type interfaces) by Twin-Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (T-WAAM). This combination of materials is interest in chemical plants, oil & gas, nuclear applications, where high corrosion wear resistance are essential requirements. Althoug...

Two experiments were conducted to determine some of the factors that led to hypomagnesemic tetany associated with the feeding of two orchardgrass hays. Sixteen mature Columbia and Suffolk wethers (62 to 72 kg), four of which were fitted with ruminal and abomasal cannulae, were fed one of two tetany-prone orchardgrass hays or a non-tetany-prone bromegrass hay. In Exp. 1, 12 wethers were used in ...

Reproductive performance was evaluated in beef heifers born over a 2-yr period to determine the effects of target breeding weight (TBW) and development system (SYS) on growth and subsequent reproductive efficiency. Spring-born Angus heifers (253 ± 0.7 kg) were randomly allocated over 2 consecutive yr (yr 1, n = 80; yr 2, n = 96) to be developed to either 55% (350 kg) of mature BW (moderate gain...

Information on the tiller development of hybrid bromegrass (Bromus inermis × Bromus riparius Rehm) is limited. The objective this study was to evaluate effect clipping frequency at vegetative and reproductive stages concentrations sugars ‘AC Knowles’ compared ‘Kirk’ crested wheatgrass (Agropyron cristatum L.). This experiment conducted in greenhouse using tillers vernalized plants dug from fiel...
