Influence of sustained rumensin release on steer performance and forage utilization

Cochran, B.; Vanzant, E.; Avery, T.; Riley, Jack G.

Steers managed within an intensive-early stocking program and receiving

Rumensin® via a slow-release bolus tended to have higher average daily gains than

steers not receiving Rumensin. However, forage organic matter intake, fill, digestibility, and diet selection showed little response to Rumensin administration.
