Length of weaning period but not timing of vaccination affects feedlot finishing performance and carcass characteristics of fall-weaned, ranch-direct beef calves

Macek, M.J.; Iliff, J.W.; Olson, KC; Jaeger, J.R.; Schmidt, T.B.; Thomson, D.U.; Pacheco, L.A. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)

Bovine respiratory disease decreases profitability associated with cattle feeding. The cost of respiratory disease includes death loss, expenses associated with treatment, and reduced growth performance. Respiratory ...
Marination technique influences whole muscle beef jerky salt content and flavor intensity

Skaar, G.R.; Boyle, E.A.E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)

Beef jerky is a popular meat snack that is simple to recognize and define. The USDA Food Standards and Labeling Policy Book (FSLPB) allows labeling use of the title “jerky” to a product that has been dried to a ...
Nutrient restriction does not affect implant efficacy

Lee, T.; Thomson, D.U.; Mamedova, L.K.; Wileman, B.W.; Bradford, B.J.; Reinhardt, C.D. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)

Anabolic implants in finishing beef cattle offer significant return on investment. Anabolic implants improve average daily gain feed efficiency in pasture and feedlot cattle. One way growth-promoting implants stimulate ...
Optimizing a new 5-day CIDR-CO-Synch timed artificial insemination program

Stevenson, J.S.; Pulley, S.L.; Mellieon, H.I.; Olson, KC; Jaeger, J.R.; Johnson, S.K.; Grieger, D.M.; Breiner, R.A. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)

The 7-day CO-Synch + CIDR protocol is a popular ovulation-synchronization program used by cow-calf producers to facilitate artificial insemination (AI). A progesterone- impregnated controlled internal drug release (CIDR) ...
Relationship between ultrasonically measured beef cow carcass traits and lifetime productivity

Pacheco, L.A.; Jaeger, J.R.; Minick-Bormann, J.; Olson, KC (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)

Ultrasound is widely used in seed stock production, commercial operations, and in feed yards to predict carcass merit. It also has been used to assess the value of individuals as parents in the seed stock industry. ...
Reproduction of heifers sired by high or low residual feed intake angus bulls

Blair, E.; Bormann, J.M.; Moser, D.W.; Marston, T.T. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)

Residual feed intake (RFI) has gained popularity as a selection tool for improving feed efficiency in beef cattle. RFI is the difference between what an animal consumes and what it is predicted to consume based on size ...
Sun-curing and harvest maturity impacts concentration and protein-binding capacity of condensed tannins in sericea lespedeza (lespedeza cuneata)

Eckerle, G.J.; Olson, K.C.; Jaeger, J.R.; Pacheco, L.A. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)

Sericea lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata) is a noxious weed that infests approximately 600,000 acres of native tallgrass range in Kansas. Intake of sericea lespedeza by grazing livestock is poor, presumably as a result of ...
Supplementing dried distillers grains with solubles to heavy yearling stocker cattle grazing native tallgrass pastures during late summer and fall improves animal performance and carcass characteristics

Stickel, A.; Houser, T.; Olson, K.C.; Drouillard, J.; Gerlach, B.; Goehring, B.; Pacheco, A.; Macek, M.; Parsons, G.; Miller, K.; Thompson, L.; Dikeman, M.; Unruh, J.; Blasi, D. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)

Grazing stocker cattle on low-quality forages is a common practice in Kansas; however, animal performance typically is modest. Due to the increasing availability of ethanol co-products, producers may be able to use dried ...
Tenderness and intramuscular lipid of most major muscles from Bos indicus cattle are less than Bos taurus cattle

Highfill, C.M.; Font, O.E.; Dikeman, M.E.; Kropf, D.H. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)

In semitropical climates in the United States, Bos indicus breeds of cattle, primarily the Brahman breed, are utilized in crossbreeding programs with Bos taurus cattle to improve productivity by increasing disease and ...
Voluntary intake of prairie hay contaminated with sericea lespedeza (lespedeza cuneata) by beef cows

Eckerle, G.J.; Olson, K.C.; Jaeger, J.R.; Pacheco, L.A. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)

Sericea lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata) is a noxious weed that infests approximately 600,000 acres of native tallgrass range in the Kansas Flint Hills. Intake of sericea lespedeza by grazing beef cattle is poor due to the ...
Zilpaterol-HCl reduces urinary excretion of N-tau-methylhistidine by finishing steers

Brake, D.W.; Titgemeyer, E.C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2011)

Zilpaterol-HCl is an orally active b-adrenergic agonist that repartitions nutrient use in cattle and has been approved for use during the final 20 to 40 days of the finishing period. Zilpaterol administration to finishing ...
