• All-in-one high energy sorghum silage compared with and without antibiotic and conventional high energy sorghum silage for feedlot steers 

  Smart, L.I.; Drake, C.L. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-03-17)

  Research done here in 1967 and 1968 indicated that adding a complete supplement to forage as it was ensiled gave results equal to using soybean meal at the time of feeding. The research continued to improve the complete ...
• Effect of pre-slaughter withdrawal from feed on cattle fasted for varying lengths of time 

  Carr, T.; Allen, Dell M.; Phar, P.; Cox, R. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-03-17)

  Feedstuffs pass through cattle in approximately four days; however, steam-flaked rations may have a faster rate of passage. How much value do cattle derive from feed fed the last few days prior to slaughter, particularly ...
• Protein synthesis in the rumen: Ruminal urease inhibition by acetohydroxamic acid 

  Adepoju, A.; Portela, F.; Brent, B.E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-03-17)

  When urea is fed to ruminants, it is immediately converted to ammonia by an enzyme, urease. The ammonia usually becomes available faster than rumen bacteria can convert it to protein. Studies were reported last year ...
• Nutritive value of forages as affected by soil and climatic differences 

  Clary, F.G.; Brent, B.E.; Richardson, D.; Banbury, Evans E; Spaeth, C.W.; Erhart, A.B.; Arnett, D.W.; Boren, Fred W.; Perry, H.B. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-03-17)

  Wintering and finishing performances of beef steers have been compared at Colby, Garden City, Manhattan and Mound Valley. When feeds were grown locally, cattle at Garden City and Colby outperformed those at Manhattan ...
• Effects of winter nutrition level on cow and calf performance 

  Schalles, R.R.; Drake, C.L.; Kiracofe, G. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, 2011-03-17)

  Cow and calf performance under four winter nutritional levels was evaluated, using 61 purebred Polled and high grade Hereford cows randomly allotted to obtain approximately equal pregnant and open cows in each group. ...
