This book was released on 2019-07-11 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic analysis of beef cattle production has been limited by the inability to fully describe the underlying production process. Except for confined feeding of cattle, beef cattle production is the process of growing cattle who consume forages. The animal and the forage possess attributes of both factors and products of production. The production of forage constitutes one production process, animal growth is another production process, and reproduction by female animals is a third production process. Cattle production involves all three processes in such a manner that each influences the outcome of the other. Each process is itself complex and analysis is further complicated when all three are considered simultaneously.

Download or read book Beef Cattle Production Systems written by Andy D. Herring and published by CABI. This book was released on 2014-10-24 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook provides an integrated view of beef cattle production with a systems based approach, discussing the interrelationships of a broad range of aspects with the overall goal of optimising cattle production. This book provides the background to allow cattle producers to match their production environments with genetic, management, and marketing opportunities for sustainable beef production globally. This logic and resulting considerations can then be tailored to address specific regional challenges and opportunities worldwide. Considerations and examples for extreme situations will be provided, such as very small herds, very large herds, communal-group situations, and minimal artificial input systems.

Download or read book Beef Production and Management Decisions written by Thomas Gordon Field and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 784 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Animal Science courses in Beef Production and Management, Cow-Calf Management, Seedstock Management, and Stocker Cattle and Feedyard Management. The most comprehensive beef cattle text available, Beef Production and Management Decisions is written to allow students to understand the structural, regional, economic, and management changes and issues confronting the beef industry. This text serves three primary purposes: 1) to identify the significant biological principles that contribute to profitability and sustainability of the production of beef cattle; 2) to systematically integrate the biological and economic principles required to make effective management decisions; and 3) to enhance understanding, communication, and cooperation among all segments of the beef industry.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of four experiments conducted was to evaluate production and economic efficiencies of intensified cow-calf production management systems. The first experiment tested the effect of calf age at weaning on cow and calf performance and feed utilization at 2 locations. Body weight change from early to conventional weaning time was greater for early-weaned cows. Cow BCS and conception rates were not impacted by weaning. Calf BW at conventional weaning time was greater for conventionally-weaned calves than early-weaned calves at ARDC, but greater for early-weaned than conventionally-weaned calves at PHREC. Calf ADG per unit of total feed energy intake was greater for nursing pairs at ARDC, but not different between early- and conventionally-weaned pairs at PHREC indicating early-weaning may have minimal effect on reducing feed energy requirements. In Exp. 2, the effect of post-weaning management system and calf age at weaning was evaluated on growing and finishing performance, carcass characteristics, and economics of calves produced from an intensively managed cow-calf system. During growing, fast-track cattle had improved DMI and ADG. Finishing DMI, ADG, HCW, and marbling were greater for slow-track cattle at the same 12th rib fat thickness. Breakeven was similar and profitability greater for fast-track. Weaning age had minimal impact, but post-weaning management influenced subsequent performance and economics demonstrating the value of alternative management systems. The third experiment studied supplementation of ethanol by-products and low-quality forages to cow-calf pairs grazing smooth bromegrass pastures as a method to reduce grazed forage intake. Supplementation replaced approximately 40% of grazed forage intake suggesting that ethanol co-products and low-quality forages can replace grazed forage intake allowing for increased stocking rate without impacting animal performance. An analysis of profitability of intensively managed cow-calf systems utilizing distillers grains and crop residues and the economic sensitivity of profitability to changes in feed costs, feeder cattle prices, replacement female costs, and reproductive rates was conducted in Exp. 4. Greater returns were projected as weaning percentage increased, but the economic feasibility and extent of positive returns of such a system will be dependent on price relationships for feed and calves and cowherd reproductive performance.
