A trial was conducted using 723 crossbred heifers (468 lb initially) to evaluate the effects of including melengestrol acetate (MGA) in receiving diets on growth performance, morbidity, mortality, and carcass characteristics. ...
Effects of pregnancy in feedlot heifers on performance and carcass characteristics

Bishop, G.L.; Brethour, J.R.; Marston, T.T.; Lawrence, T.E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2003)

Sixty-eight, spring-born, yearling heifers were raised, estrous synchronized, artificially inseminated once, and then finished at the Kansas State University Western Kansas Agricultural Research Center at Hays to determine ...
