  • Calf health and performance during receiving is not changed by fence-line preconditioning on flint hills range vs. drylot preconditioning
    Bailey, E.A.; Preedy, G.W.; Pacheco, L.A.; Jaeger, John R.; Waggoner, Justin W.; Olson, K. C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2013)
    Ranch-of-origin preconditioning can improve the welfare and performance of beef calves by decreasing the stress associated with weaning, transport, diet change, and commingling with other calves. Preconditioning methods ...
  • Effects of prepartum ruminally protected choline supplementation on performance of beef cows and calves
    Pacheco, L.A.; Hibbard, L.R.; Macek, M.J.; Sproul, N.A.; Eckerle, G.J.; Bailey, E.A.; Bolte, J.W.; Jaeger, John R.; Olson, K. C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)
    Prepartum supplementation of spring-calving beef cows is a vital part of cow-calf enterprises, often affecting subsequent reproductive success. Most research in the area of prepartum supplementation has focused on provision ...
  • Effects of supplemental protein and energy on digestion and urea kinetics in beef cattle
    Bailey, E.A.; Brake, D.W.; Anderson, David E.; Jones, M.L.; Titgemeyer, Evan C.; Olson, K. C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010)
    Previous research at Kansas State University has shown that providing supplemental energy when protein is deficient will cause a decrease in digestion of low-quality forage. Our project examined the effects of supplemental ...
  • Efficiency of early weaned beef calves is not improved by restricting feed intake during 84-day growing phase
    Bailey, E.A.; Preedy, G.W.; Pacheco, L.A.; Jaeger, John R.; Waggoner, Justin W.; Olson, K. C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2013)
    Early weaning can be used by cow-calf producers to reduce stocking rates by 20% to 30% during drought. Ranchers may be reluctant to wean early because of reduced calf weights and reduced revenue compared with weaning ...
  • Increasing protein supply to pregnant beef cows when energy is limited does not improve cow or calf performance
    Bailey, E.A.; Titgemeyer, Evan C.; Cochran, R.C.; Jones, Timothy J.; Olson, K. C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2012)
    Pre- and postpartum deficiencies of metabolizable protein have been identified as potentially limiting to productivity of beef cows and calves. Pre-partum supplementation of forage-based diets with ruminally undegraded ...
  • Urea recycling in beef cattle fed prairie hay- based diets
    Bailey, E.A.; Brake, D.W.; Anderson, David E.; Jones, M.L.; Titgemeyer, Evan C.; Olson, K. C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010)
    Maximizing utilization of native rangeland is an important aspect of the cow/calf phase of beef production. Native rangeland is often of poor quality (less than 7% crude protein). Protein content of the rangeland is ...
