dc.description.abstract |
Holstein steer calves (n = 96) were on
experiment from 8 to 18 wk of age. Control
calves were fed a diet in which all supplemental
protein was from soybean meal; in the
experimental diet, part of the soybean meal was
replaced by fish meal. Both feeds were readily
consumed, and consumption did not differ
between treatments. Gains of calves fed fish
meal were greater (P = .10) during the first 8
wk of the experiment; however, over the entire
experiment, the difference was not significant.
Overall results suggest that fish meal may
improve weight gains and feed efficiency of
younger and smaller calves. |
