  • Alfalfa hay inclusion rate in wet corn gluten feed based diets
    Mullins, C.R.; Grigsby, K.N.; Bradford, B.J. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2008)
    In this experiment, we evaluated the effects of varying alfalfa inclusion rate in diets containing 31% wet corn gluten feed on a dry matter basis. Eighty lactating Holstein cows were allocated into groups of 10 and ...
  • Dietary molasses enhances ruminal biohydrogenation and partially alleviates diet- induced milk fat depression
    Bradford, B.J.; Titgemeyer, E.C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2008)
    Milk fat depression remains a problem on dairy farms, and in recent years, incorporation of distillers grains (typically with solubles added and often dried) has contributed to this problem on some farms. In this study, ...
  • Estimating optimal operation time of korral kools on dairy cows in a desert environment
    Ortiz, X.A.; Smith, J.F.; Bradford, B.J.; Harner, J.P.; Oddy, A. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2008)
    Developing management strategies for Korral Kools will help producers provide cooling in the housing area while minimizing the operational cost of the Korral Kools system. Two experiments were conducted at a dairy in ...
  • High inclusion rate of wet corn gluten feed on performance of late-lactation holstein cows: preliminary results
    Rezac, D.J.; Grigsby, K.N.; Bradford, B.J. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2008)
    A novel diet formulation strategy incorporating wet corn gluten feed at 47% of diet dry matter was evaluated in late-lactation cows. Diets were formulated for similar protein and energy concentrations with dramatic ...
  • Opportunities with low profile cross ventilated freestall facilities
    Smith, J.F.; Harner, J.P.; Bradford, B.J.; Overton, M.W. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2008)
    Low profile cross ventilated freestall buildings are one option for dairy cattle housing. These facilities allow producers to control the cows’ environment during all seasons of the year. As a result, an environment ...
