Abstract:

This is the third test designed to study the value of stilbestrol implants for steer calves being fed a wintering-type ration. Synovex implants are being used for the second time. Both products are being used successfully to increase the daily gains of steers on high-energy fattening rations. Information concerning their value for calves being fed high-roughage wintering diets is rather limited, however.
