Understanding your forage test results

Creator:: Ruddell, A. Peters (Amy Peters), Filley, Shelby Jean, and Porath, Marni
Abstract:: Balanced nutrition is important for efficient livestock production. Daily nutrient requirements vary depending on the phase of production. Knowing the nutrient composition of feeds and matching feeds to animal requirements at a given stage of production will ensure that nutritional needs are met. Forage analysis is a management tool that...

The effect of grazing interval on forage quality and production of meadow foxtail

Creator:: Wenick, Jess J.
Abstract:: For the last fifty years, meadow foxtail (Alopecurus pratensis L.) has been invading native flood meadows throughout the Harney Basin in southeastern Oregon. The expansion of this grass species has been the result of its broad climatic requirements and ability to withstand drought while thriving in saturated soil conditions for...

Early spring forage production for western Oregon pastures

Creator:: Oregon State University. Extension Service, Pirelli, Gene J., Hart, J., Filley, S., Peters, A., Porath, M., Downing, T., Bohle, Mylen G., and Carr, J.
Abstract:: Forage production is of primary importance to Oregon’s livestock enterprises and agricultural economy. The forage is either grazed or conserved. Conserved forage is needed to feed livestock in times of little forage growth—a key cost of livestock production. Extending the grazing season reduces the cost and time involved in feeding...

Conditioning of northern Great Basin grasses with livestock grazing

Creator:: Aguilera, Lisa M.
Abstract:: Because forage quality of cool season grasses declines to sub-maintenance levels for ruminants late in the growing season in the northern Great Basin, there is a need to elevate protein levels and digestibility of grasses for both wild and domestic ruminants in late summer. Anderson and Scherzinger (1975) proposed using...

Perennial ryegrass nonstructural carbohydrates in dairy cattle nutrition

Creator:: Buyserie, Annette C.
Abstract:: Ruminal microorganisms require nitrogen and energy for microbial crude protein (MCP) synthesis. High-quality grass provides an excess of readily available proteins relative to available carbohydrates which reduces the conversion efficiency of grass protein to MCP. Nonstructural carbohydrates (NSC) are the primary source of readily available energy. Objectives of trial 1...

A distance and shape-based methodology for the unequal area facility layout problem

Creator:: Kriausakul, Thanat
Abstract:: Significant improvements in production effectiveness have resulted from implementing cellular manufacturing systems (CMS). Following the cell formation, an important issue that needs to be addressed is the unequal cell (or department/facility) layout problem, which is the sub-issue in the CF problem. The work reported in this thesis illustrates the assignment...

Palatability of Mongolian rangeland plants

Creator:: Damiran, Daalkhaijav
Abstract:: This document provides information on the palatability of plants on Mongolian rangelands including native and introduced vascular plants by major seasonal periods: winter (January - March), spring (April- June), summer (July - September), and autumn (October - December). In addition to this, some species of valuable lichen species are also...

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...
