The effect of feeding tallow, urea and protected tallow on in vivo nutrient digestion in sheep

Creator:

Aseltine, Mark Stephen

Abstract:

Five sheep digestion trials with four animals per treatment and three treatments per trial were conducted to determine if feeding protected tallow and/or protein would alter the deleterious effects of feeding urea and tallow together. Apparent digestibility coefficients, nitrogen retention and biological values were calculated. An additional trial was also...

The effect of precipitation variation and fertilization level on the nutritive value of wheat residue

Creator:

Carey, Anne C.

Abstract:

Five simulated precipitation patterns characteristic of the Columbia Basin and Plateau region and six fertilization rates were evaluated for their effect on percent crude protein, percent in vitro dry matter digestibility, fiber content, and yield of wheat aftermath on a commercial farm in north central Oregon. The higher moisture regimes...
