Creator:: Hopman, Bruce T.
Abstract:: Forty-two fall-calving crossbred cows were equally allotted to six pens of seven cow-calf pairs each. Two treatments (0 and 200 mg lasalocid/head/day) with three replications were used to determine the effects of lasalocid on fall-calving beef cows. The cows were fed grass hay, haylage and pasture ad libitum. The cow-calf...

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...
