Use of livestock to improve the quality of elk winter range forage in northeastern Oregon

Creator:: Clark, Patrick Eugene
Abstract:: The effects of late spring defoliation on the winter forage quality of bluebunch wheatgrass (Agropyron spicatum [Pursh] Scribn. & Smith), Idaho fescue (Festuca idahoensis Elmer) and elk sedge (Carex geyeri Boott) and the response of wintering Rocky Mountain elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni Bailey) to changes in winter range forage quality...

Quality of bluebunch wheatgrass (Agropyron spicatum) as a winter range forage for Rocky Mountain Elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni) in the Blue Mountains of Oregon

Creator:: Bryant, Larry Duane
Abstract:: This research was conducted on three study areas on elk winter ranges in Northeast Oregon. One was on the Starkey Experimental Forest and Range and the others were in the same vicinity. Plant appendages, spring and fall defoliation and fall growth of bluebunch wheatgrass were evaluated in terms of quality...

Impact of sheep density and grazing duration on forage use in tall fescue-subclover hill pasture

Creator:: Ali, Eltom E.
Abstract:: A study investigating the effect of sheep stocking density and grazing duration on forage intake, grazing efficiency, dietary selectivity and subsequent forage accumulation in tall fescue(Festuca arundinacea)- subclover(Trifolium subtaranium) pastures was conducted near Corvallis, Oregon during early and late spring in 1988 and 1989. Grazing treatments were 2, 6, and...

The impact of grazing on forage quantity, quality and foliar cover of the herbaceous vegetation in the Mamora Cork Oak Forest, Morocco

Creator:: Mejjati-Alami, Mohammed
Abstract:: This research was conducted in the Mamora cork oak forest of Morocco to: (1) Describe the impacts of sheep grazing (none, 35% use, 70% use) in March, April, May and June of 1987 and 1988 on seasonal forage production; (2) evaluate the effects of these factors on annual changes in...

Management of stockpiled forages and optimal use of supplements by beef cattle while consuming low-quality forages

Creator:: Suverly, Norman A.
Abstract:: Three studies were conducted to evaluate: 1) rotationally grazed forage for late-summer stockpiling; 2) effects of lactation on self-fed supplement intake; and 3) influence of cow age on hand-fed supplement intake. For the first study, treatments consisted of non grazed, 2X and 3X grazed. Crude protein of forage grazed 3X...

Heifer performance and drought and grazing effects on flood meadow vegetation

Creator:: Nixon, David Eugene, 1963-
Abstract:: Native flood meadows are important for hay production and winter feeding areas in many western states. With the introduction of meadow foxtail (A lopecurus pratensis L.) and other new species, the botanical composition of the meadows has been steadily changing. With shifting priorities occuring on public lands, these flood meadows,...

Relative palatabilities of Great Basin forages and mechanisms elicting selective grazing by cattle

Creator:: Cruz-Guerra, Ruben
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: stimulates animals to prefer one forage over another. Palatability can include a group of plant species

A stable carbon isotope approach to distinguish climate stress from other imposed stresses in coniferous forests

Creator:: Panek, Jeanne A.
Abstract:: To understand the effect of human-induced stresses on forests, there is a need for a method to separate effects of imposed stress from effects of natural climate stress. I developed an approach to predict forest response to climate stress using as indicators stable carbon isotopes in tree foliage and growth-rings....
