Adapting roughages varying in quality and curing processes to the nutrition of beef cattle. Pelleted alfalfa hay and dehydrated pelleted green forage-type sorghum in the winter ration of heifer calves

Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Richardson, D.; Cox, R.F.; Boren, Fred W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-10-03)

This is the second year of an experiment designed to compare the feeding value of alfalfa fed as long hay or coarsely-ground hay pellets, and forage-type sorghum fed as silage or dehydrated green forage sorghum pellets. ...
Cobolt "bullets" for beef cattle

Koch, B.A.; Smith, E.F.; Richardson, D.; Cox, R.F. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-09-20)

Earlier work at this station indicated that supplemental trace minerals may be of value in some instances. Introduction of the so-called cobalt “bullet” has made it possible to study one of these trace minerals alone as a ...
A comparison of dry rolled and steam rolled sorghum grain

Smith, E.F.; Richardson, D.; Koch, B.A.; Boren, Fred W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-10-03)

Good to choice quality yearling Hereford heifers originating near Fort Davis, Texas, were used in the trial. They had been on bluestem pasture prior to the test and were allotted to treatments on the basis of prior treatment ...
A comparison of feeding hay to heifers on bluestem pasture and in drylot

Smith, E.F.; Good, D.L.; Koch, B.A.; Boren, Fred W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-10-03)

This study was designed to evaluate mature dry winter pasture for animals fed all of the harvested roughage such as hay that they would consume. In addition one group animals wintered in drylot were moved to pasture one ...
A comparison of wintering in drylot with wintering on bluestem pasture for yearling steers on a wintering, grazing, and fattening program

Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Boren, Fred W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-10-03)

Twenty head of yearling Hereford steers, grading about high good on the basis of USDA feeder grades, were used in the test. They came from near Fort Davis and Paducab, Texas, and were allotted into tow lots on the basis ...
The effects of shade and hormone implant on fattening yearling heifers

Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Richardson, D.; Wearden, S.; Boren, Fred W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-10-03)

Fifty head of Hereford heifers averaging 607 pounds per head were used in the 1959. They were placed in five lots, 10 head per lot on the basis of live weight and previous treatment. The heifers were on test from May 14, ...
Response of previously implanted cattle to oral diethylstilbestrol

Koch, B.A.; Smith, E.F.; Richardson, D.; Cox, R.F. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-10-03)

May 4, 1959 steers on the trace mineral study in Woodson County were randomly divided. A 12-mg. implant of diethylstilbestrol was placed in the left ear of each of six calves in either treatment group. All calves grazed ...
Rolled vs. finely ground pelleted sorghum grain in cattle rations

Richardson, D.; Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Tsien, W.S.; Boren, Fred W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-10-03)

Twenty Hereford steer calves were divided as equally as possible on the basis of weight and conformation into two lots of 10 animals each. The average daily rations are shown in Table 22 for the wintering and fattening ...
Rolled vs. finely ground pelleted sorghum rain in cattle rations

Richardson, D.; Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Tsien, W.S.; Boren, Fred W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-10-03)

This is a progress report of another test to further evaluate methods of sorghum grain preparation. Twenty of the heaviest steer calves purchased for experimental work were divided into two lots of 10 animals each. The ...
Stilbestrol implants for steer calves on a wintering, grazing, and fattening program; the value of Aureomycin during the wintering and fattening periods

Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Carmack, B.D.; Boren, Fred W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-10-03)

The Hereford steer calves used in this experiment were assigned to experimental lots randomly according to weight. They originated near Paducah, Texas, and graded USDA Good as feeders. All received the same basic ration ...
Trifluomeprazine fed to fattening steers

Koch, B.A.; Smith, E.F.; Richardson, D.; McCarter, M.M. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-09-20)

The steers used in this study were good to choice grade Herefords, averaging 980 pounds, that originated in New Mexico. They had been wintered in central Kansas at a rather high level of feeding. The steers were randomly ...
The value of Diethylstilbestrol implants and implants plus an Antibiotic for wintering steer calves

Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Richardson, D.; Boren, Fred W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-10-03)

Forty-four good-to-choice Hereford steer calves from near Fort Davis, Texas, were randomly allotted according to weight to three treatments. All lots were fed the same high roughage rations. They received per head daily: ...
The value of enzymes added to cattle rations

Richardson, D.; Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Tsien, W.S.; Boren, Fred W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-10-03)

Three lots of 10 animals were fed the same ration except for the added enzymes. The average daily ration is shown in Table 25, as are results of the test for the first 112 days. There are no significant differences in gains ...
The value of grain sorghum harvested as silage and as dehydrated pellets

Richardson, D.; Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Tsien, W.S.; Boren, Fred W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-10-03)

Combine-type sorghum grain is widely grown in Kansas, and normally only the grain is harvested. In many instances, moisture conditions at harvest time are such that the grain cannot be stored without artificial drying. ...
