Protein adjustments in heat stressed finishing cattle

Ames, D.R.; Willms, C.L.
A summer feedlot trial indicates that protein can be removed from

finishing rations in proportion to magnitude of heat stress without

causing a decline in average daily lain. Cattle consumed .13 kg/hd/day

(.30 lb) less supplemental protein soybean oil meal) during the 82-day

period with no decline in average daily gain when compared to controls.
