The effects of various levels of dietary protein on high producing dairy cows in early lactation

Creator:: Pangborn, Marvin Clark
Abstract:: This project was designed to test the biological effects of three levels of dietary protein (12.7, 16.3 and 19.3% CP on a dry matter basis) on high producing Holstein-Friesian dairy cows. Forty five second lactation or older cows that showed the potential to produce over 31.75 kg (70 lbs) per...

Evaluation of tropical forages and by-product feeds for rabbit production

Creator:: Raharjo, Yono C.
Abstract:: An evaluation was made on the nutritive value of tropical forages and by-product feeds for rabbit production. Digestibility of nutrient fractions, feed preferences, growth, combination of forages, supplementation of micro and macro nutrients and/or effects of drying temperature on the quality of four groups of forages, namely woody legumes (WL),...

The Effects of a Dietary Immunomodulatory Supplement on the Immune-Metabolic Axis in Growing Beef Cattle

Creator:: Armstrong, Shelby A.
Abstract:: To evaluate the immunologic and metabolic effects of OmniGen-AF® (Phibro Animal Health corporation, Quincy, IL; OG) supplementation in growing beef cattle, we designed three studies using replacement beef heifers (8.5 and 10.5 months of age) and steers supplemented across backgrounding, transition, and finishing periods. In Study 1, the effect of...

Lactational response of Holstein cows to oral administration of a synthetic glucocorticoid

Creator:: Lind, Ronald Egnard
Abstract:: Two experiments involving 33 Holstein cows were conducted for the primary purpose of studying the effects of flumethasone (a synthetic glucocorticoid) on milk and milk constituent yields. The secondary purpose was to compare udder health, reproductive performance, and body weight changes of cows on flumethasone therapy. Nine Holstein cows were...

Management Strategies to Improve Immune Function and Performance of Feeder Cattle

Creator:: Lippolis, Katana D.
Abstract:: Three experiments evaluated the effects of different management strategies on immune function and performance of feeder cattle. The objective of experiment 1 was to compare the effects of anticipating, delaying, or vaccinating against Bovine Respiratory Disease (BRD) at the time of weaning and feedlot entry on growth, DMI, and plasma...

Inheritance of maternal antibody concentration in the bovine neonate

Creator:: Muggli, Noelle Elizabeth
Abstract:: Serum samples were collected between 24 and 48 h of age from 408 Hereford calves of a selection experiment and from 200 Angus, Hereford and Red Poll calves of another experimental population (Germ Plasm Utilization project). Concentrations of Immunoglobulin G₁ (IgG₁) were determined by single radial immunodiffusion. Breed or selection...

Interrelationships among characteristics of body form and milk production in dairy cattle

Creator:: Ufford, Glen Raymond
Abstract:: Evaluations of body form and measures of milk production were recorded for 188 Holstein lactations and 77 Jersey lactations in the Oregon State University Dairy Herds. Components of body form included general appearance, dairy character, body capacity, and mammary system and 34 sub-components of these four traits plus body weight...

Comparative values of corn and corn cannery waste silages for milk production in dairy cattle

Creator:: Meyers, George Henry
Abstract:: The production level of dairy cows fed corn cannery waste silage was investigated during a 305 day lactation study. Eighteen Holstein cows were paired according to their probable producing ability and field corn silage was fed to the control pairmates, Forage analyses (DM, CP, CF, and nitrates) were determined on...

Performance of dairy cattle under two feeding regimes, dry lot and irrigated pasture

Creator:: Kyeyune-Sendagi, Aloysius Lloyd
Abstract:: Four experiments were conducted (1961-1964) for the primary purpose of studying the milk and milk constituent yields of dairy cows under dry lot and pasture systems of management. The secondary purpose was to compare the health and breeding performance of cows under these two systems. Ninety-eight cows of the Holstein...

Influence of maternal instinct stimulated by calf contact on the hormonal induction of lactation in the bovine

Creator:: Bel Isle, Dennis Marc
Abstract:: An experiment was conducted to determine the effect a newborn calf would have on initial success rate, lactation performance, infertility and progesterone levels during mammogenesis and lactogenesis in dairy cows undergoing hormonal inducement to lactate. Fourteen Holstein, Brown Swiss and Jersey infertile, non-lactating cows, loaned by Pacific Northwest dairymen, were...
