Utilizing infrared thermography to predict pork quality

Lawrence, T.E.; Spire, M.F.; Dikeman, Michael E.; Hunt, Melvin C.; Hogge, S.B.; James, B.W. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010-02-18)

Three experiments using 63 pigs were conducted to determine if infrared thermography could segregate pigs based on subsequent pork quality. Pigs were subjectively classified as either “hot” or “normal” based on infrared ...
Using a mixture of cottonseed hulls and cottonseed meal to replace alfalfa hay in diets for stressed feeder calves

Farran, T.B.; Hunter, R.D.; Montgomery, Sean P.; Sindt, J.J.; Blasi, Dale A.; Drouillard, James S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010-08-06)

One 28-day receiving experiment was conducted using 625 exotic × British cross heifers to evaluate growth performance and morbidity on receiving diets that contained either alfalfa hay or a pellet composed of 65% ...
Timed-insemination of beef heifers using Cosynch with or without MGA

Wickersham, T.A.; Cochran, R.C.; Grieger, David M. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010-08-06)

Our purpose was to determine if feeding melengesterol acetate (MGA) for 1 week in combination with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and prostaglandin-F2" (PGF) would better synchronize heifers for timed artificial ...

Tenderness and cooking characteristics of beef cooked by electric belt grill, forced-air convection oven, or electric broiler

Lawrence, T.E.; King, D.A.; Obuz, E.; Yancey, E.J.; Dikeman, Michael E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010-08-06)

We used an electric belt grill, a forced-air convection oven, and an electric broiler to cook 170 bottom round, 142 brisket, 177 top sirloin, 176 strip loin, and 136 eye of round steaks from USDA Select carcasses to ...
Temperature accuracy of an electric belt grill, a forced-air convection oven, and an electric broiler

Lawrence, T.E.; King, D.A.; Dikeman, Michael E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010-08-06)

We evaluated the temperature variation of an electric belt grill set at four temperatures, a forced-air convection oven set at three temperatures, and an electric broiler that has no temperature control. After finding that ...
A survey of phytoestrogenic activity in Kansas flint hills pastures

Paisley, S.I.; Welshons, W.V.; Rottinghaus, G.E.; Davidson, Jeffrey L.; Higgins, James J.; Blasi, Dale A.; Holder, Michael S.; Kehler, David E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010-08-06)

The botanical composition and basal cover of three Kansas Flint Hills pastures located in Butler and Chase counties was surveyed to estimate the incidence of plant species that contain appreciable levels of estrogenic ...
Soybean hulls and alfalfa for limit-fed cattle

Trater, A.M.; Löest, C.A.; Lambert, B.D.; Titgemeyer, Evan C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010-08-06)

We evaluated the optimal level of alfalfa inclusion in limit-fed, soybean hull-based diets. Steers were fed soybean hull-based diets containing 0 to 30% alfalfa or alfalfa alone. Feed intakes were lower for alfalfa than ...

Short-term feeding of MGA to postpartum cows prior to the breeding season

Gleghorn, J.F.; Marston, T.T.; Wankel, L.E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010-08-06)

A protocol to make anestrous cows more likely to cycle prior to estrous synchronization would greatly enhance reproductive efficiency. Ease of application, availability, and low cost make feeding melengestrol acetate ...
Rumensin®-Tylan® combinations in limit-fed growing diets: effects on growing and finishing performance and carcass characteristics

Montgomery, Sean P.; Farran, T.B.; Sindt, J.J.; Coetzer, C.M.; Pike, J.N.; Trater, A.M.; LaBrune, H.J.; Hunter, R.D.; Laudert, S.B.; Drouillard, James S. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010-08-06)

Five hundred seventy-two crossbred beef heifers were used to compare gain and feed efficiency of cattle consuming restricted quantities of energy-dense growing diets containing varying concentrations of Rumensin® and ...
Resynchronization of estrus with progesterone and estrogen in previously inseminated beef cows

Medina-Britos, M.A.; Richardson, A.M.; Lamb, G.C.; Hensley, B.A.; Marple, T.J.; Stevenson, Jeffrey S.; Johnson, Sandra K. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010-08-06)

A study was conducted in 609 beef cows to determine whether or not estrus might be resynchronized in previously inseminated beef cows to accommodate a second artificial insemination (AI) early in the breeding season. ...
Response of Holstein steers fed a soybean hull-based diet to amino acid supplementation when the methionine requirement was met

Lambert, B.D.; Löest, C.A.; Titgemeyer, Evan C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010-08-06)

A study was conducted to determine the response to amino acid supplementation when the first limiting amino acid (methionine) was provided in excess. Three ruminally cannulated Holstein steer calves (281 lb) were fed ...
Relationships among beef carcass quality and cutability indicators

Lawrence, T.E.; King, D.A.; Montgomery, T.H.; Dikeman, Michael E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2010-08-06)
