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

Creator:: Clark, Abe, DelCurto, Timothy, Vavra, Martin, Damiran, Daalkhaijav, and Darambazar, Enkhjargal
Abstract:: Due to the increasing cost and concern of catastrophic wildfires in the Western United States, there is an increasing interest in fuels reduction projects. Fuel reduction treatments utilize various methods of thinning and/or prescribed fire to obtain desirable forest stand conditions. However, the effects of fuels reduction on ecosystem function...

Changes in Forage Quantity and Quality with Continued Cattle Grazing in a Mountain Riparian Pasture

Creator:: Darambazar, Enkhjargal, DelCurto, Timothy, Ackerman, Callan, Pulsipher, Gary, and Damiran, Daalkhaijav
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to evaluate changes in the quantity, quality, and moisture of available forage in a riparian pasture, and shrub utilization by cattle during a 30-d late summer grazing period. A riparian pasture (44.7 ha) in northeast of Oregon was grazed with 30 yearlings (419 kg,...

Chemical composition and digestibility of Stipa caphillata-Cleistogenes squarrosa communities in the Eastern Mongolian rangelands

Creator:: Damiran, Daalkhaijav, M., Shagdarsuren, and Sainkhuu, Tserendash
Abstract:: Forage samples from Stipa caphillata-Cleistogenes squarrosa communities from the Eastern Mongolian rangelands were analysed for chemical composition and digestibility. Samples were collected at 10-days intervals from 30th June to 10th September. The study indicated that OM content of Stipa caphillata-Cleistogenes squarrosa communities ranged from 94.4 to 95.2%. The highest value...

Chemical composition and digestibility of fringed sagebrush (Artemisia frigida Willd.)+forbs+needlegrass (Stipa Krylovii Roshev.) and forbs+grasses communities in the forest steppe rangelands

Creator:: Damiran, Daalkhaijav and Sainkhuu, Tserendash
Abstract:: Forage samples from fringed sagebrush+forbs+needlegrass (mountain steppe) and forbs+grasses (mountain meadow) communities in the forest steppe rangelands of Mongolia were collected in late February, April, May, June, July, August, September and October. Samples were analysed for chemical composition and digestibility. The study indicated that OM content of mountain steppe pasture...

Chemical content and rumen degradability of desert steppe pasture of Mongolia

Creator:: Damiran, Daalkhaijav and Ts, Altanzul
Abstract:: Desert, desert-steppe (Gobi) zone is the largest province by area (165,000 square kilometres) of Mongolia. The Gobi contains some 560 plant species, in 80 different vegetation associations (Swift, 1991). There are number of results of nutritive value of desert-steppe’s pasture grass. Mongolia’s dry climate means that pasture grasses have less...

Diet composistion, dry matter intake, and diet overlap of mule deer, elk, and cattle

Creator:: Findholt, Scott, Johnson, Bruce, Damiran, Daalkhaijav, DelCurto, Timothy, and Kie, John
Abstract:: Mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), elk (Cervus elaphus), and cattle share rangelands throughout much of interior western North America. Considerable debate exists about the degree to which facilitation or competition occurs for forage between these three species (Nelson 1982, Wisdom and Thomas 1996, Miller 2002). Prior cattle grazing can have beneficial...

Effect of lactic acid bacterial ferment on silage consumption by dairy cows in forest steppe zone of Mongolia

Creator:: Darambazar, Enkhjargal and Damiran, Daalkhaijav
Abstract:: We studied the effect of a lactic acid bacterial additive on the quality of silage made of grass-legume mixtures in the forest steppe zone of Mongolia. The use of lactic acid bacterial ferment positively influenced the diet digestion and the cows silage consumption. The cows ate well the silage treated...

Estimating Shrub Forage Yield and Utilization Using a Photographic Technique

Creator:: Damiran, Daalkhaijav, DelCurto, Timothy, Johnson, Douglas, Findholt, Scott, and Johnson, Bruce
Abstract:: We assessed a photographic technique to estimate shrub yield and utilization of common snowberry, snowbrush, and heart-leafed willow found in mixed-conifer rangelands. We determined the correlation between green leaf area size (LA) and forage yield (Y) and compared plant utilization estimated by photographic technique (ULA) to actual utilization (UY) values....

Influence of previous cattle and elk grazing on the subsequent diet quality and nutrient intake rate of cattle, deer, and elk grazing late-summer mixed-conifer rangelands

Creator:: Damiran, Daalkhaijav
Abstract:: Four studies were conducted on late-summer diet quality and quantity of cattle (Bos taurus), mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus), and elk (Cervus elaphus) in response to prior grazing by cattle and elk on mixed-conifer rangelands and on related research techniques. In our first study we assessed a photographic technique to...

Influence of previous cattle and elk grazing on the subsequent quality and quantity of diets for cattle, deer, and elk grazing late-summer mixed-conifer rangelands

Creator:: Damiran, Daalkhaijav, DelCurto, Timothy, Findholt, Scott, Pulsipher, Gary, and Johnson, Bruce
Abstract:: A study was conducted to determine foraging efficiency of cattle, mule deer, and elk in response to previous grazing by elk and cattle. Four enclosures, in previously logged mixed conifer (Abies grandis) rangelands were chosen, and within each enclosure, three 0.75 ha pastures were either: 1) ungrazed, 2) grazed by...
