  • Betaine as a dietary supplement for finishing cattle
    Loest, C.A.; Drouillard, J.S.; Titgemeyer, E.C.; Hunter, R.D.; Wessels, R.H. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)
    One hundred seventy five steers (902 lb initial body weight) were used in a finishing study to determine the effect of betaine, provided either as feed-grade betaine (Betafin-S6, Finnsugar Bioproducts) or as ...
  • Development of an in vitro procedure to determine ruminal availability of protein
    Schoenholz, C.K.; Drouilllard, J.S.; Titgemeyer, E.C.; Armendariz, C.K. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)
    A series of in vitro experiments was conducted to determine the ruminal availability of protein from grains. Procedures were based on assumptions that 1) ruminal availability of protein is first-limiting to microbial growth, ...
  • Effect of supplemental carbohydrate source on the utilization of low-quality tallgrass-prairie hay by beef steers
    Heldt, J.S.; Cochran, R.C.; Farmer, C.G.; Mathis, C.P.; Titgemeyer, E.C.; Nagaraja, T.G. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)
    Twenty ruminally fistulated steers were used in different two experiments to evaluate the effects of supplemental carbohydrate source (starch, glucose, fructose, or sucrose) fed at .3% BW/day on the utilization of low-quality ...
  • Effects of base ingredient in cooked molasses blocks on intake and digestion of prairie hay by beef steers
    Greenwood, R.H.; Titgemeyer, E.C.; Drouillard, J.S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)
    Blocks based on cooked beet molasses, cane molasses, or concentrated separator by-product, CSB) were tested to compare their effects on intake and digestion of prairie hay by beef steers. All blocks contained at least ...
  • Effects of ruminally protected choline and dietary fat on performance of finishing heifers
    Bindel, D.J.; Drouillard, J.S.; Titgemeyer, E.C.; Wessels, R.H.; Loest, C.A. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)
    A 120-day finishing study utilizing 318 heifers (753 lb initial body weight) examined the effects of ruminally protected choline in diets with no tallow or 2 or 4% of supplemental tallow. Heifers were fed a finishing ...
  • Effects of supplemental degradable intake protein on intake and digestibility of bermuda hay
    Mathis, C.P.; Cochran, R.C.; Heldt, J.S.; Woods, B.C.; Olson, K.C.; Stokka, G.L.; Titgemeyer, E.C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)
    A study with 16 ruminally fistulated beef steers fed Bermuda hay ad libitum showed that the intake and digestibility of hay was not influenced by increasing levels of supplemental degradable intake protein (DIP). ...
  • Effects of supplemental degradable intake protein on intake and digestibility of low-quality brome hay
    Mathis, C.P.; Cochran, R.C.; Heldt, J.S.; Woods, B.C.; Olson, K.C.; Stokka, G.L.; Titgemeyer, E.C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)
    The effects of increasing levels of degradable intake and digestion of low-quality brome hay were evaluated using 16 ruminally fistulated beef steers. Trends were evident for small, positive changes in total intake and ...
  • Effects of various carbohydrate sources on the utilization of low-quality tallgrass-prairie hay in continuous culture
    Heldt, J.S.; Cochran, R.C.; Mathis, C.P.; Titgemeyer, E.C.; Nagaraja, T.G. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)
    We evaluated the effects of supplemental carbohydrate sources on the utilization of low- quality forage in continuous “artificial rumen” culture. Providing readily digestible carbohydrates (starch, glucose, and fiber) ...
  • Feeding systems and implant strategies for calf-fed Holstein steers
    Milton, C.T.; Brandt, R.T. Jr.; Titgemeyer, E.C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)
    Two hundred sixty-four Holstein steer calves (308 lb) were used in a 2×3 factorially designed experiment to compare the effect of two feeding systems and three implant strategies on performance and carcass characteristics. ...
  • Soybean hulls in roughage-free diets for limit-fed growing cattle
    Löest, C.A.; Titgemeyer, E.C.; Drouillard, J.S.; Blasi, D.A.; Bindel, D.J. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)
    Three hundred heifers (573 lb initial body weight) were used in a growing study to compare growth performance of cattle fed roughage-free diets comprised mainly of soybean hulls with that of cattle receiving roughage- and ...
