dc.description.abstract | The two preceding tests with heifer calves were conducted without the use of grass. Varying amounts of grain and protein supplements were fed with silage during the winter season and then a full feed of grain was used to finish these heifers for the summer or early fall market. Now that experimental pasture is available, plans are to develop a system of fattening heifers for the summer market or early fall market which uses grass to the fullest extent. Dry lot feeding will continue as a check. | en_US |
