Book Effects of Field Pea Usage in Growing and Finishing Diets for Beef Cattle

Download or read book Effects of Field Pea Usage in Growing and Finishing Diets for Beef Cattle written by Hannah L. Greenwell and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The value of field peas (FP) as a feedstuff has not been thoroughly assessed and compared to other feeds, such as corn, to better establish an economic value. Field peas are characterized by a high CP content (23-26%), a large portion (80%) being rumen degradable protein (RDP), and containing almost a third less starch (31-40%) than corn. Three research trials were performed to better understand the value of FP as a grazing supplement, finishing diet component, and any effects on digestion. Experiment 1 assessed the value of FP as a grazing supplement compared to corn. Grazing was followed by a finishing period with or without FP inclusion at 20% (DM basis). Cattle supplemented FP on pasture had greater ending BW and ADG than those cattle that were not supplemented and lower gains than those cattle supplemented a mixture of DRC, solubles and urea. Finishing performance and carcass characteristics were similar across treatments other than those cattle that were not supplemented on pasture experienced compensatory gain during finishing through increased ADG and G:F. Two digestion trials were conducted to compare FP to corn in high forage diets and to assess rumen undegradable protein (RUP) of FP. In Exp. 1 cattle were fed either a high (HQ) or low quality (LQ) forage with no supplement (CON), supplemented with FP (PEAS), or supplemented with dry-rolled corn, solubles, urea mixture (CORN) at 0.43% of BW (DM basis). Field peas increased DMI, DM digestibility, OMI, OM digestibility, and NDF digestibility when measured at 24 hours in situ. Feeding FP resulted in VFA concentrations similar to the CON treatment. In Exp. 2, FP were ruminally and duodenally incubated to evaluate RUP content and digestibility. Results show that the specific field peas that were evaluated ranged in CP content from 22 – 26.5% with an RUP content that was significantly affected by rumen incubation duration. As rumen incubation time increased, RUP content decreased. Digestibility of RUP of FP ranged from 97.4 – 98.9%. These studies suggest that if appropriately priced, FP would be a viable option for grazing supplementation or inclusion in finishing diets.

Book Effect of Dry Matter Intake Restriction on Energy Balance  Ruminal Fermentation  and Nutrient Retention by Beef Steers

Download or read book Effect of Dry Matter Intake Restriction on Energy Balance Ruminal Fermentation and Nutrient Retention by Beef Steers written by Jonathan H. Clark and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two studies were conducted to determine the effects of DMI restriction on digestion and metabolism by feedlot steers. In Trial 1, 12 Angus X steers (BW [almost equal to] 450 [plus or minus] 18 kg) were assigned randomly to one of three diets that were formulated to promote a 1.6 kg ADG at intake levels corresponding approximately to 100% (AL), 90% (IR90), or 80% (IR80) of ad libitum DMI. In Trial 2, 12 crossbred steers (BW = 445 [plus or minus] 56 kg) fitted with ruminal cannulae were randomly assigned to one of two diets that were formulated to promote a 1.6 kg ADG at either AL or IR80. All diets delivered similar total NE, MP, Ca, and P per day. During both trials, fecal DM output by IR80 was less (P[greater than or equal to] 0.03) than that of AL; IR90 was similar (P[greater than]0.10) to AL during trial 1. Digestion of DM by IR80 cattle was greater (P[greater than] 0.01) than that of AL during both trials; IR90 was similar (P[greater than]0.10) to AL during trial 1. Metabolizable energy intake (MEI) was similar (P[greater than or equal to] 0.20) between treatments during both trials, whereas P retention was similar (P=0.46) between treatments during trial 2. Total VFA and the molar proportion of acetate of AL were greater (P[greater than]0.03) than that of IR80 during trial 2; however, IR80 had a greater (P[almost equal to]0.03) molar proportion of propionate. Fluid dilution rate was similar (P=0.42) between treatments during trial 2. Under the conditions of these studies, restricting DMI while holding energy and protein intake constant decreased manure production and changed ruminal fermentation patterns in finishing steers. Improvements in performance associated with programmed-feeding regimes of the type studied here do not appear to be related to changes in diet digestion or MEI.

Book Effects of Protein Supplementation and Forage Quality on Intake and Digestion in Cattle

Download or read book Effects of Protein Supplementation and Forage Quality on Intake and Digestion in Cattle written by Jamie Kunkel and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many pasture and rangeland scenarios, low-quality forages (6-8% CP) are the primary energy source for some portion of the year. At these times, energy is typically the first limiting nutrient to the ruminant. Low-quality forages are generally not limited in availability; however, the high cell wall content and reduced levels of CP prevent ruminants from being able to extract the harvested energy. Without provision of supplemental nutrients, the available energy may be inadequate to meet performance expectations. Protein supplementation during periods of inadequate forage quality has been observed to alleviate ruminal nitrogen deficiencies and increase forage utilization. Increased forage utilization translates into greater energy extraction allowing for increased animal performance. The first trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of utilizing non-protein nitrogen (a slow-release urea compared to urea) on intake and digestion of beef steers consuming low-quality bermudagrass hay. Steers were provided ad libitum access to a low-quality bermudagrass hay (7.3 % CP and were ruminally dosed once daily with either urea or slow-release urea (SRU) at levels to provide 0, 64, 128, or 192 mg of N/kg of initial BW per day. Additionally, steers were supplemented with glycerol at levels of 0 or 0.1% of initial BW per day. Total OMI and forage OMI (FOMI) increased quadratically (P
