Botanical composition and diet quality of beef cattle grazing at three stocking rates following fuels reduction in mixed conifer forests

Creator:: Clark, Abe A.
Abstract:: An experiment was conducted to evaluate the influence of forest fuels reduction on the diet quality, botanical composition, relative preference, and foraging efficiency of beef cattle grazing at different stocking rates. A split plot factorial design was used, with the whole plots (3 ha) being fuel reduced or no treatment...

The effects of various levels of dietary protein on high producing dairy cows in early lactation

Creator:: Pangborn, Marvin Clark
Abstract:: This project was designed to test the biological effects of three levels of dietary protein (12.7, 16.3 and 19.3% CP on a dry matter basis) on high producing Holstein-Friesian dairy cows. Forty five second lactation or older cows that showed the potential to produce over 31.75 kg (70 lbs) per...

Konjac flour/carrageenan gel as a suitable fat replacer in a ground meat system

Creator:: Dickson, Robert L.
Abstract:: The effect of adding a high moisture gel manufactured from a combination of konjac flour (2%) and kappa carrageenan (1%) to a reduced fat ground beef system was evaluated. Lean beef (95-10) and 50-50 fat beef trimmings were used to manufacture reduced fat ground beef patties containing konjac flour/carrageenan (K/C)...

Factors Affecting Persistence of Canines at an Independent Task

Creator:: Brubaker, Lauren M.
Abstract:: The development of problem-solving behaviors in canines, including persistence, has implications for canine training, welfare, and the human-dog bond. Past research has shown that a variety of factors, including genetics (domestication) and training experience, play a role in a how a canine might behave during a problem-solving task. Less well...

Nutrition and management of the beef unit for production of slaughter animals on range and improved pastures in southeastern Oregon

Creator:: Daugherty, Dennis A.
Abstract:: Studies were conducted over a two year period to evaluate alternative finishing methods for spring and fall-born beef cattle. Management alternatives from birth to slaughter included season of calving, lactating cow nutrition, preweaning calf nutrition, weaning age, calf and yearling winter nutrition, range and irrigated pasture supplementation, grazing practice, range...

Proximate Factors Influencing Cat Behavior, Cognition, and The Human-Cat Bond

Creator:: Vitale, Kristyn R.
Abstract:: The domestic cat is one of the world’s most popular companion animals. However, to date much remains to be learned about cat behavior and the cat-human relationship. To examine the influence of proximate factors on cat behavior and the human-cat bond, three studies were undertaken. Study 1 directly measured the...

Alternate methods of fattening steers in Eastern Oregon

Creator:: Whittington, David Lynn
Abstract:: Studies were conducted at the Squaw Butte Experiment Station during two consecutive years to : (1) compare various internal indicators and chromic oxide to estimate forage intake and fecal production, (2) compare methods of producing slaughter weight steers using maximum quantities of forage and minimum quantities of grain. Actual fecal...

Monensin and zeranol alone and in combination for growing-finishing steers and growing heifers

Creator:: Wooten, Donald Griffin
Abstract:: Ninety-two spring-born and 76 fall-born steer and heifer calves (Hereford and Angus x Hereford) averaging 188 and 255 kg, respectively, were utilized in a 2x2 factorial arrangement of treatments to study the effects of zeranol and monensin, alone and in combination, on growth rate, feed efficiency and carcass characteristics. After...

Cryogenic preservation of ram spermatozoa

Creator:: Burkhart, Harry Ray
Abstract:: Investigations with ram semen were conducted to develop procedures of cyrogenic preservation that would provide long-term retention of fertilizing capacity in ram spermatozoa. An isotonic extender consisting of egg yolk, sodium citrate, lactose, glycerol, and a broad spectrum antibiotic was selected from among several extenders tested in pilot studies. Using...
