Abstract:: Observations were made on silage pH, chemical composition and 24hr in vitro dry matter digestion (IVDMD) to evaluate effects of various additives ensiled with annual ryegrass straw. Additives were compared in factorial designed trials utilizing .95 1 glass jar silos. Selection of additives used in each subsequent trial was based...

Abstract:: Three levels of dietary crude protein (8.6, 11.4, and 17.2) were fed to 24 pony mares to determine the effects on the estrous cycle, conception rate, and serum progesterone concentrations. Mares were allotted into three treatment groups designated as low protein (LP), medium protein (MP), and high protein (HP). Following...

Creator:: Bedell, Thomas E.
Abstract:: Sheep and cattle dietary preferences were determined on tall fescue-subclover ( Festuca arundinacea-Trifolium subterraneum) and perennial ryegrass-subclover (Lolium perenne-Trifoliuni subterraneum) pastures in western Oregon during the spring and summer periods of 1964 and 1965. Esophageal-fistulated Willamette ewes and Hereford and Hereford-Angus yearling cattle were grazed separately on each pasture mixture...
