Brazle, F.K.Coffey, K.P.2010-11-022010-11-022010-11-02http://hdl.handle.net/2097/6424Stocker heifers were fed diets of either 67% rice mill feed + 33 % dehydrated alfalfa pellets (RA) or a 67% grain sorghum + 33% dehydrated alfalfa pellets (GA). The RA heifers consumed more feed daily but gained slower (P<.05), resulting in poorer feed efficiency. RA heifers also had a lower percentage shrink (P<.05) during the first 2 1/2 hr of simulated trucking. Rice mill feed is a poor feedstuff for growing calves when included in rations at high levels.BeefBy-productsRice mill feedBackgroundingValue of rice mill feed as a feedstuff for backgrounding heifersConference paper
