  • Comparison of Compudose with Ralgro or Synovex-S reimplant programs for finishing steers
    Laudert, S.B.; Davis, G.V. Jr. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1984)
    Finishing yearling steers reimplanted with Synovex-S or Ralgro gained 6.8 and 4.2% faster, respectively, than those implanted with Compudose. However, feed efficiency was not significantly different among treatments. ...
  • Comparison of Compudose, Ralgro and Synovex-S implants for growing steer calves
    Simm, D.; Kuhl, G.; Schalles, R. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1984)
    Four field trials were conducted to compare Ralgro, Synovex-S and Compudose implants for growing steer calves. All implant programs significantly increased (P<.01) average daily gain. Reimplanting with Ralgro or Synovex-S ...
  • Comparison of Compudose®, Ralgro® and Synovex-C® for suckling steer calves
    Simms, D.D.; Schalles, R. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1984)
    The comparative growth-promoting value of Compudose, Ralgro, Ralgro + Ralgro reimplant, and Synovex-C + Synovex-C reimplant was evaluated on five Kansas ranches with 674 suckling steer calves in seven trials conducted ...
  • Comparison of Synovex-S and STEER-oid implants for feedlot steers
    Lee, B.; Laudert, S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1984)
    Synovex-S and STEER-oid were compared in a 133-day finishing trial to evaluate their effects on growth and carcass traits of yearling steers. No significant differences in average daily gain, feed intake, feed to gain ...
  • Consumer preference of beef rib steaks from implanted steers, implanted and non-implanted bulls.
    Pelton, C.D.; Allen, D.M.; Corah, L.R.; Milliken, G.A. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1984)
    Our research showed that implanting bulls from birth to slaughter made steaks from bulls as acceptable as steers to consumer panels. Implanting bulls from weaning to slaughter resulted in the least desirable consumer panel ...
  • Effect of oxytetracycline hydrochloride coating added to Compudose implants in grazing steers
    Lomas, L.W. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1984)
    Adding an oxytetracycline coating to Compudose implants did not change their effectiveness. Implanting with Compudose significantly increased gain of grazing steers an average of 17% compared to non-implanted controls.
  • Effect of Ralgro® implantation periods on masculinity and carcass traits of young bulls and steers.
    Gray, D.G.; Unruh, J.A.; Dikeman, M.E.; Corah, L.R. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1984)
    Repeated Ralgro® implantation of young bulls from birth to slaughter resulted in gains and carcass characteristics traits intermediate between non-implanted bulls and steers, and meat palatability traits similar to steers. ...
  • Feeding bulls-A practical evaluation
    Simms, D.; Corah, L.; Kuhl, G.; Schalles, R. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1984)
    Bull calves on nine Kansas ranches were either castrated and implanted with Ralgro, left intact and not implanted, or left intact and implanted with Ralgro, with performance evaluated through slaughter. Bulls produced ...
