Comparison of medicinal feed additives on health and growth performance of beef calves grazing native grass pasture

Blasi, D.A.; Epp, M.P.; Greenwood, B. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010)

Optimizing growth rate is an important contributor to overall profitability for stocker cattle grazing native Flint Hills pasture. Disease challenges from pinkeye and foot rot have traditionally been problems that ...
Dried distillers grains supplemented at different frequencies to stocker heifers grazing late-season Flint Hills native pastures

Epp, M.P.; Blasi, D.A.; Metzen, W.L.; Oleen, B.E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010)

Wetter-than-normal summer grazing seasons can produce excessive forage beyond what the typical Flint Hills double-stock harvest rate can remove. These late-summer native grasses do not contain adequate protein to sustain ...
Effects of Morinda citrifolia on growth performance and health of high-risk calves

Hibbard, L.R.; Blasi, D.A.; Godbee, R.G.; Epp, M.P.; Oleen, B.; Olson, KC (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010)

Bovine respiratory disease continues to be the most costly disease affecting productivity and profitability in the stocker segment. Long-acting injectable antimicrobials are presently used to reduce the incidence and ...
Evaluation of ExpressTM 5-PHM and Titanium® 5-PHM Bac®-1 on high-risk receiving steers

Epp, M.P.; Blasi, D.A.; Hollis, L.C; Barnhardt, B.B. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2004)

One backgrounding field study was conducted at two locations to compare the health and performance of high-risk receiving steers given an ExpressTM 5-Pasteurella Haemolytica- Multocida (PHM) vaccine or a Titanium® 5-PHM ...
Feed-based metaphylaxis programs did not affect health or performance of high-risk calves mass medicated with Draxxin on arrival

Blasi, D.A.; Epp, M.P.; Derstein, R. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010)

Bovine respiratory disease continues to be the most costly disease affecting productivity and profitability in the stocker segment. Despite their high cost, longer-acting, injectable therapeutic antimicrobials such as ...

Blasi, D.A.; Epp, M.P.; Derstein, R. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010)

Bovine respiratory disease continues to be the most costly disease affecting productivity and profitability in the stocker segment. Despite their high cost, longer-acting, injectable therapeutic antimicrobials such as ...
Restricted feeding improves performance of growing steers during subsequent grazing on native flint hills pasture

Anglin, C.O.; Blasi, D.A.; Olson, K.C.; Reinhardt, C.D.; Epp, M.P.; Derstein, R.D.; Barnhardt, B.B. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2008)

Beef stocker operators are margin-operators, and rising feed costs force them to consider alternative feeding strategies to reduce production costs. Limit-feeding is a management technique that has positive implications ...
Steroid hormone profiles and brain monoamine oxidase type A (MAO-A) activity of buller steers

Epp, M.P.; Blasi, D.A.; Johnson, B.J.; Kayser, J.P.; Grieger, D.M. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2004)

A grazing/feedlot field study was conducted to evaluate the steroid hormone profile and brain monoamine oxidase type A (MAOA) activity of steers exhibiting characteristics attributed to the Buller Steer Syndrome in ...
Supplementation of stocker steers grazing native flint hills pasture with a protein and mineral supplement increases average daily gains

Barnhardt, B.B.; Epp, M.P.; Bryant, A.M.; Guiroy, P.J.; Blasi, D.A. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2007)

Supplementation of range cattle with minerals is a common management practice that is used to maximize performance. Flint Hills grasses provide an adequate amount of protein for the diet through the first half of a ...
Trailer-mounted RFID reader scans EID tags during cattle shipments

Barnhardt, B.B.; Bryant, A.M.; Epp, M.P.; Spire, M.F.; Blasi, D.A. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2007)

One of the challenges regarding implementation of a national animal identification system is the logistics of reading and reporting EID (electronic identification) tag numbers as cattle move through the production cycle. ...
Ultrasound technology has limited ability to predict carcass yield grade of lightweight, short-fed stocker cattle

Lawrence, S.J.; Kreider, S.E.; Higgins, J.J.; Blasi, D.A.; Allen, L.; Dikeman, M.E.; Epp, M.P.; Ritter, P. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2013)

The majority of cattle fed in commercial feedlots are processed and placed into pens without sorting into groups of uniform size and body condition. As a result of the variability in weight and condition, this management ...
Variation in performance of electronic cattle ear tags and readers

Bryant, A.M.; Blasi, D.A.; Barnhardt, B.B.; Epp, M.P.; Glaenzer, S.J. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2006)

This study was conducted to evaluate the performance of ISO 11785 radio frequency identification (RFID) cattle ear tags and readers under ideal laboratory conditions. Tag and reader manufacturer identities are masked to ...
