    During times of heavy infestations by birds, feedlots can have 25 to 30% increases in feed usage, thereby resulting in large economic losses. Because starlings, blackbirds, grackles, and other avian pests normally feed ...
  • Performance and carcass characteristics of finishing steers fed dried, full-fat corn germ
    Drouillard, J.S.; Kessen, T.J.; Sulpizio, M.J.; Spire, M.F.; Ethington, R.T. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2002)
    Three hundred and fifty-eight crossbred beef steers (average initial weight 701 lb) were fed finishing diets containing 0, 5, 10, or 15% full-fat corn germ to evaluate effects on growth performance and carcass chara ...
  • Plasma metabolites of receiving heifers and the relationship between bovine respiratory disease, weight gain, and carcass characteristics
    Montgomery, S.P.; Drouillard, J.S.; Sindt, J.J.; Greenquist, M.A.; Miller, W.F.; Pike, J.N.; Good, E.J.; Loe, E.R.; Sulpizio, M.J.; Kessen, T.J. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2004)
    Six hundred sixty-five crossbred beef heifers initially weighing 495 lb were used to evaluate rectal temperature and plasma glucose, lactate, and urea nitrogen at initial processing as indicators of health status of newly ...
  • Relationship of blood glucose concentration at arrival to performance and carcass characteristics of beef heifers
    Loe, E.R.; Drouillard, J.S.; Kessen, T.J.; Montgomery, S.P.; Sindt, J.J.; Sulpizio, M.J.; Pike, J.N. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2003)
    Crossbred yearling heifers (n = 394) were used to compare the effect of high or low blood glucose measured at arrival on feedlot performance and carcass characteristics. A blood sample was collected when heifers arrived ...
