  • Effect of Rumensin on performance of growing heifers
    Riley, J.; Bolsen, K.; Corah, L.; Fink, G. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
    We used 136 Hereford heifer calves in two studies to determine the effect on performance of 200 mg monensin (trade name Rumensin) per head daily. It significantly improved gain by 7.5% and 4.6% in trials 1 and 2 respectively, ...
  • Energy levels for growing and finishing steers
    Dikeman, M.; Bolsen, K.; Riley, J. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
    Four combinations of low (LE), moderate (ME) and high (HE) energy rations were fed to growing and finishing steers. The four treatments were: LE-ME; LE-HE; ME-ME and ME-HE. All steers were more efficient during the growing ...
  • Forage and grain yields of wheat and barley
    Bolsen, K.; Berger, L.L.; Moore, W. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
    Our objectives were to determine the effects of variety and stage of plant growth at harvest on forage and grain yields of wheat and barley. Plots were grown at the Animal Science and Industry Farm near Manhattan in ...
  • Micronized milo and urea in high-hay growing rations for beef heifers
    Bolsen, K.; Riley, J. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
    Twenty-four individually fed heifers were used to evaluate four combinations of micronized or dry-rolled milo and soybean meal or urea supplements in prairie hay growing rations. Feeding 5 lbs. of micronized milo produced ...
  • Milo stover and forage sorghum silages for growing heifers
    Bolsen, K.; Riley, J.; Corah, L.; Grimes, C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
    Ninety-six heifer calves were used to compare four silage combinations: (1) 100% milo stover, (2) 67% milo stover and 33% forage sorghum, (3) 33% milo stover and 67% forage sorghum and (4) 100% forage sorghum. Each ...
  • Sources of roughage and milo for finishing steers
    Bolsen, K.; Riley, J. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
    One hundred five yearling steers were used to evaluate seven milo treatments: (1) dry, (2) micronized, (3) steam flaked +.2% propionic acid (acid-flake), (4) field harvested high moisture (F-HM) ensiled whole in an 02 ...
  • Wheat, barley and corn silage rations and urea for growing steers
    Bolsen, K.; Riley, J. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
    Eight rations were fed to 15 yearling steers (3 pens of 5 steers each). Arthur wheat, Paoli barley and corn silages were supplemented with either soybean meal or urea; Blue Boy II and Eagle wheat silages were supplemented ...
  • Whey-reconstituted milo for finishing beef heifers
    Bolsen, K.; Grimes, C.; Mickelson, R. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
    Three milo treatments were evaluated in finishing rations for heifers: dry-rolled, reconstituted with water, and reconstituted with whey. Reconstituting milo with water or whey did not increase weight gain or efficiency ...
