Objectives

Our objective was to determine the effects of feeding free-choice bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) round-bale silage to growing calves stocked at increasing rates and grazing wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) pasture in north-central Arkansas.

Materials and Methods

In the fall and winter, steers were stocked at 2.47 steers/ha without bermudagrass bale- age (HCON) or were stocked at 1× (H1.0), 1.5× (H1.5), or 2× (H2.0) the HCON stocking rate with ad libitum access to bermudagrass round-bale wrapped silage. Each pasture was stocked at 5.6 steers/ha (8 steers per pasture) in the spring, with continued ad libitum silage offered to pastures in the H1.0, H1.5, and H2.0 fall treatments.

Results and Discussion

When steers in H1.0 were offered ad libitum bermudagrass haylage with no change in stocking rate, ADG were increased by 12% over HCON to 1.43 kg/d. As stocking rate increased in the fall and winter from H1.0 to H1.5 and H2.0 treatments, ADG decreased. The ADG of H1.5 (1.25 kg/d) did not differ from HCON (1.27 kg/d), and ADG of H2.0 (1.12 kg/d) was reduced by 12% compared with HCON. There was no effect of of- fering supplemental round-bale haylage on ADG of steers grazing graze-out wheat pastures. Steer grazing days per hectare increased when round-bale haylage was offered, even though stocking rates were not increased during this part of the experiment. Total system net returns did not differ between HCON and H1.0. However, total system net return ($876/ha) was greater for H2.0 compared with H1.0 ($571/ha), whereas H1.5 ($693/ha) was intermediate, dif- fering from neither H1.0 nor H2.0.

Implications and Applications

Feeding moderate- quality roughage during the fall can increase production stability and thus improve economic stability of the wheat stocker enterprise. There does not appear to be an eco- nomic advantage of feeding moderate-quality roughage ad libitum to stockers grazing spring wheat when producers decide to forgo wheat grain harvest and steers graze out the wheat crop.

目标我们的目标是确定在阿肯色州中北部以不断增加的速度饲养并放牧小麦(Triticum aestivum L.)牧草的生长犊牛饲喂自由选择的百慕大草(Cynodon dactylon)圆捆青贮饲料的效果。材料与方法在秋冬季,按 2.47 头/公顷的标准饲养小牛,不使用百慕大草捆(HCON),或按 HCON 饲养率的 1 倍(H1.0)、1.5 倍(H1.5)或 2 倍(H2.0)饲养,同时让小牛自由采食百慕大草圆捆青贮饲料。每个牧场在春季的存栏量为 5.6 头/公顷(每个牧场 8 头),在 H1.0、H1.5 和 H2.0 秋季处理中,继续向牧场自由提供青贮饲料。结果与讨论当 H1.0 中的牧场在存栏量不变的情况下自由提供百慕大草干草时,ADG 比 HCON 增加了 12%,达到 1.43 kg/d。随着秋冬季饲养量的增加,H1.0、H1.5 和 H2.0 处理的 ADG 均有所下降。H1.5 的 ADG(1.25 kg/d)与 HCON(1.27 kg/d)相比没有差异,而 H2.0 的 ADG(1.12 kg/d)比 HCON 降低了 12%。补充圆捆干草对放牧小麦牧草的母牛的平均日增重没有影响。在提供圆捆干草时,每公顷陡坡牛的放牧天数增加了,尽管在这部分试验中没有提高放牧率。HCON 和 H1.0 的系统总净收益没有差异。但是,H2.0 的系统总净收益(876 美元/公顷)高于 H1.0(571 美元/公顷),而 H1.5(693 美元/公顷)处于中间水平,既不同于 H1.0,也不同于 H2.0。当生产者决定放弃收获小麦而让阉牛放牧春小麦时,给放牧春小麦的阉牛自由采食中等质量的粗饲料似乎并不具有生态优势。

Objective

Our objective was to evaluate model structure choice on estimates of efficiency, based on residual feed intake, and thereby cattle profitability.

Materials and Methods

Efficiencies were compared for 2 models using data from 7 studies (509 cattle). Model 1 DMI were estimated using ordinary least squares as f(ADG and BW0.750). Model 2 was a multivariable Bayesian model; DMI was f(ADG, BW0.750 and BW). For model 2, DMI, BW, and ADG were ranked by model 1 residuals categorized in quintile to evaluate whether information found in residuals related to composition of gain or maintenance.

Results and Discussion

Efficiency rankings lacked concordance and predictive value between models, suggesting that ordinary least squares, Bayesian, or both frameworks lack utility to predict efficiency. With the exception of 1 data set, DMI was better predicted in the Bayesian framework. Estimated recovered energy (Mcal/d) in model 2 was less for cattle in quintile 1 than in quintile 5 for 4 of 7 data sets and numerically less for 6 of 7 data sets. Estimated maintenance in model 2 was less (quintiles 1 vs. 5) for 5 of 7 data sets. Substantial information existed in model 1 residuals regarding differences in composition of gain and maintenance not found in model 2 residuals.

Implications and Applications

Differing efficiencies between models indicate that residuals are properties of models, not cattle. Selection of cattle with less empty body fat may not be desirable from an economic standpoint.

材料与方法利用 7 项研究(509 头牛)的数据,比较了 2 个模型的效率。模型 1 采用普通最小二乘法估算 DMI,即 f(ADG 和 BW0.750)。模型 2 是一个多变量贝叶斯模型;DMI 为 f(ADG、BW0.750 和 BW)。对于模型 2,DMI、BW 和 ADG 根据模型 1 的残差按五分位数分类进行排序,以评估残差中发现的信息是否与增重或维持组成有关。除一个数据集外,贝叶斯框架能更好地预测 DMI。在模型 2 中,7 个数据集中有 4 个数据集中五分位 1 的牛的估计回收能量(Mcal/d)低于五分位 5 的牛,7 个数据集中有 6 个数据集中五分位 1 的牛的估计回收能量(Mcal/d)低于五分位 5 的牛。7 组数据中有 5 组在模型 2 中的估计维持量较少(五分位 1 与五分位 5)。在模型 1 的残差中,存在着模型 2 残差中没有的有关增重和维持量组成差异的大量信息。从经济角度来看,选择空体脂肪较少的牛可能并不可取。

Objective

Wet distillers grains with solubles (WDGS) are a common feed ingredient used in cattle finishing diets. However, the NE values of WDGS have not been clearly delineated, and there may be an interaction between grain processing method and the feeding value of WDGS. This study was conducted to evaluate the relative NE values of WDGS and to evaluate possible associative effects between WDGS and steam-flaked corn (SFC) on energy and nitrogen utilization by finishing beef steers.

Materials and Methods

Four British crossbred steers were used in a 4 × 4 Latin square design in which steers were fed 1 of 4 diets: (1) a basal 86% concentrate diet fed a 1× maintenance (B), (2) the basal diet + SFC fed at 1.5× maintenance (B+SFC), (3) the basal diet + WDGS fed at 1.5× maintenance (B+WDGS), and (4) the basal diet + a 50:50 blend of WDGS and SFC fed at 1.5× maintenance (BLEND). Each period of the Latin square was 28 d in length with steers confined to indirect open- circuit respiration chambers the last 5 d of each period. Nutrient digestibility, urinary nutrient excretion, methane and carbon dioxide production, and heat production were determined during the last 5 d of each period. Dietary and ingredient (SFC or WDGS) TDN, DE, ME, and NE values were calculated.

Results and Discussion

The digestibility of DM and OM of B+SFC was greater than that of B+WDGS, with the BLEND diet being intermediate. Nitrogen balance was numerically greater for B+WDGS than for B+SFC, with BLEND being intermediate. Digestible energy, ME, and energy retention were greater for B+SFC than for B+WDGS, with BLEND being intermediate. The experi- mental method used affected the TDN, DE, ME, and NE values of diets, SFC, and WDGS. There were negative associative effects (−1% to −8.0%) between SFC and WDGS for energy values. Actual DE:TDN averaged 4.11 Mcal of DE/kg of TDN, which is less than the 4.4 value used by NASEM (2016). The DE:digestible OM ratio av- eraged 4.54 Mcal/kg, and the digestible OM:TDN ratio averaged 90.2.

Implications and Applications

Our results suggest that within the range of rations fed in this study, the NE values for WDGS by NASEM (2016) may overestimate their relative NE (15%) when fed in diets based on SFC.

目的带溶解物的湿蒸馏谷物(WDGS)是牛育成日粮中常用的饲料原料。然而,WDGS 的营养价值尚未得到明确界定,谷物加工方法与 WDGS 的饲用价值之间可能存在相互作用。本研究旨在评估 WDGS 的相对 NE 值,并评估 WDGS 和蒸汽压片玉米(SFC)对育成肉牛能量和氮利用的可能关联效应。材料和方法在 4 × 4 拉丁正方形设计中使用四头英国杂交母牛,母牛饲喂四种日粮中的一种:(1)86% 精饲料基础日粮,饲喂量为 1× 维持量(B);(2)基础日粮 + SFC,饲喂量为 1.5×维持量(B+SFC),(3)基础日粮 + WDGS,1.5×维持量(B+WDGS),以及(4)基础日粮 + WDGS 和 SFC 的 50:50 混合日粮,1.5×维持量(BLEND)。拉丁方格试验的每个阶段为 28 天,每个阶段的最后 5 天将母牛限制在间接开路呼吸室中。在每个阶段的最后 5 天测定养分消化率、尿液养分排泄量、甲烷和二氧化碳产生量以及产热量。结果与讨论B+SFC的DM和OM消化率高于B+WDGS,BLEND日粮介于两者之间。从数值上看,B+WDGS 的氮平衡高于 B+SFC,BLEND 介于中间。B+SFC 的可消化能、ME 和能量保持率高于 B+WDGS,BLEND 处于中间水平。使用的实验方法会影响日粮、SFC 和 WDGS 的 TDN、DE、ME 和 NE 值。SFC 和 WDGS 在能量值方面存在负相关效应(-1% 到 -8.0%)。实际 DE:TDN 平均为 4.11 兆卡路里 DE/千克 TDN,低于 NASEM(2016 年)使用的 4.4 值。我们的结果表明,在本研究中饲喂的日粮范围内,当饲喂基于 SFC 的日粮时,NASEM(2016 年)的 WDGS NE 值可能会高估其相对 NE 值(15%)。

Objective

Our objective was to develop an age × BCS factor (ABCf) that could be used to estimate the ADG of stockers grazing bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon [L.] Pers.) pasture as influenced by their age and BCS at the onset of stocking, hereafter referred to as the initial age and BCS.

Materials and Methods

Data on the ADG of stock- ers grazing bermudagrass in the southern United States were obtained from multiple sources, including literature, for various scenarios of initial age × BCS. Then, an ABCf for each age × BCS scenario was calculated by dividing its ADG by the ADG of calves 7 to 10 mo old with BCS of 5, a standard age × BCS scenario. Finally, an ABCf equa- tion was derived by regressing the ABCf values against the BCS values under each age group.

Results and Discussion

We derived the following ABCf equation to estimate the ADG of a stocker grazing bermudagrass pasture as ADG′ = ADG × ABCf, where and BCS on ADG of stockers grazing bermudagrass pas- ture. Current ADG indices or estimates do not account for the interacting effects of initial age and BCS. By incorpo- rating the ABCf into an ADG prediction system, the scien- tific community and stakeholders can more accurately as- sess the effects of these attributes on animal performance and develop appropriate purchase pricing and supplemen- tation strategies before and during stocking.

目的建立一个年龄× BCS因子(ABCf),用于评价放牧百慕大草(Cynodon dactylon [L.])的平均日增重。[Pers.])放牧受其开始放养时的年龄和BCS的影响,以下简称初始年龄和BCS。材料与方法通过文献等多种资料获取了美国南部放牧百慕大草的不同初始年龄× BCS情景下的平均日增重数据。然后,用平均日增重除以标准日龄×平均日增重为5的7 ~ 10月龄犊牛的平均日增重,计算各日龄×平均日增重。最后,将各年龄组的ABCf值与BCS值进行回归,得到ABCf方程。结果与讨论我们推导出以下ABCf方程来估计一个放牧者放牧百慕大草甸的平均日增重:ADG′= ADG × ABCf,其中和BCS为放牧者放牧百慕大草甸的平均日增重。目前的平均日增重指数或估计值没有考虑初始年龄和BCS的相互作用。通过将ABCf纳入平均日增重预测系统,科学界和利益相关者可以更准确地评估这些属性对动物生产性能的影响,并在放养前和放养期间制定适当的购买定价和补充策略。

Objective

This study examined the effects of a commercial phytogenic feed additive (PFA) on growth performance, feed efficiency, carcass traits, liver abscesses, and the immune response of growing and finishing steers.

Materials and Methods

Forty-five crossbred Angus steers (initial BW = 272 ± 20.5 kg) housed in individual pens (4.9 × 1.8 m) were used in a randomized complete block design in a 110-d growing and 120-d finishing experiment. Steers were blocked by BW and allocated to 1 of 3 treatments: control (without PFA and monensin), PFA at 500 mg/steer daily, or monensin at 300 mg/steer daily. Steers were fed a TMR ad libitum once daily and weighed on d 32, 59, and 110 in the growing phase but only at the beginning and the end of the finishing phase.

Results and Discussion

During growing, DMI did not differ, whereas final BW (trend; 415 vs. 403 kg) and ADG (numerically; 1.31 vs. 1.20 kg/d) were greater with PFA than control but did not differ from monensin (BW = 422 kg and ADG = 1.38 kg/d). Gain:feed was greater with monensin (0.173) than with PFA (0.161) and for the control (0.156). During finishing, ADG, G:F, and carcass traits did not differ, whereas DMI and acute proteins were lesser with monensin than with PFA and for the control.

Implications and Applications

Growing steers fed PFA had similar DMI and ADG but lesser G:F than did those given monensin. Both PFA and monensin resulted in similar growth performance and G:F in the finishing phase.

PERSPECTIVE AND COMMENTARY: Dairy calf feeding and nutrition major variables and subsequent performance 观点和评论:犊牛饲养和营养的主要变量和随后的性能

Purpose

My objective was to provide a critical analysis of the major nutrition variables when feeding dairy calves and to provide practical applications.

Sources

Peer-reviewed scientific literature, research abstracts, and field experiences in dairy and calf ranch operations were used.

Synthesis

A variety of liquids are fed to dairy calves in the United States, and most often, they are fed in combinations. It is critical to know and measure composition and solids levels, and to ensure consistency in what liquid is fed and how it is fed. Avoid greater than 15% solids to minimize digestive upsets due to osmolality. Traditional early weaning programs and 20% CP/20% fat milk replacer (MR) have been replaced with higher CP MR and fed at higher levels resulting in more ADG prior to weaning. Given the inverse relationship between MR fed (and its fat level) and calf starter (CS) intake, the challenge then is to moderate MR feeding early enough prior to weaning to ensure adequate CS intake prior to weaning to optimize functional rumen development and minimize postweaning slump.

Conclusions and Applications

Feed a well-texturized CS to optimize functional rumen development and avoid needing to feed forage or roughage prior to weaning. Too much forage fed too soon impairs rumen development and confounds true BW gain with gut fill. Water is the most essential nutrient needed in the greatest quantity by dairy calves. It is consumed at about 4:1 relative to DMI. Ensure water and CS containers are physically separated to avoid contamination of each in the other and to have better intake and performance. In colder weather, feed warm water. Calves are most efficient in converting nutrients to growth on a dairy farm when properly fed and managed.

我的目的是对犊牛喂养时的主要营养变量进行批判性分析,并提供实际应用。资料来源采用同行评议的科学文献、研究摘要以及奶牛和小牛牧场运营的实地经验。在美国,给奶牛喂各种各样的液体,而且通常是混合喂养。了解和测量成分和固体含量是至关重要的,并确保所喂液体的一致性和喂养方式。避免超过15%的固体,以尽量减少由于渗透压引起的消化不适。传统的早期断奶方案和20%粗蛋白质/20%脂肪代乳剂(MR)已被更高粗蛋白质代乳剂取代,并在断奶前饲喂更高水平的饲料,从而提高日增重。考虑到MR饲料(及其脂肪水平)与犊牛发菜(CS)摄入量之间的反比关系,那么面临的挑战是在断奶前足够早地适度MR饲料,以确保断奶前足够的CS摄入量,从而优化瘤胃功能发育,最大限度地减少断奶后的衰退。结论与应用饲喂质地良好的瘤胃可优化瘤胃功能发育,避免在断奶前饲喂饲料或粗饲料。过早饲喂过多的饲料会损害瘤胃的发育,并使真正的体重增加与肠道填充相混淆。水是犊牛最必需的营养物质,需要量最大。相对于DMI,它的消耗比例约为4:1。确保水和CS容器物理分离,以避免相互污染,并有更好的摄入量和性能。在寒冷的天气里,喂温水。在奶牛场中,如果喂养和管理得当,小牛最有效地将营养转化为生长。

Objective

The objective of this experiment was to determine the effects of feeding malted barley (MB) as a source of exogenous α-amylase to finishing beef steers on growth performance and methane (CH4) emissions.

Materials and Methods

Forty crossbred yearling steers (initial BW = 522 ± 31.4 kg) were used in a randomized complete block design. Steers were blocked by BW and assigned to 1 of 2 pens, each containing an automated head chamber system (GreenFeed; C-Lock Inc., Rapid City, SD) and individual feed bunks with Calan gates (American Calan, Northwood, NH). Animals were then randomized to receive finishing diets formulated to be iso-nitrogenous and iso-energetic but contain (DM basis) either 0% MB (0MB), 10% MB (10MB), or 20% MB (20MB).

Results and Discussion

There was no effect of MB inclusion on DMI or ADG (P ≥ 0.20); however, there was a linear decrease (P ≤ 0.02) in feed efficiency and DM digestibility with increasing MB inclusion. Furthermore, MB inclusion resulted in a quadratic response (P = 0.05), where CH4 production (g of CH4/d) was increased by the MB diets. Increasing MB did not affect CH4 yield (P ≥ 0.13; g of CH4/kg of DMI), but there was a tendency for a linear increase in emission intensity (g of CH4/kg of ADG; P = 0.09).

Implications and Applications

We speculate that the decreased DM digestibility and feed efficiency were caused by the MB being fed unprocessed—highlighting the need for further research where MB is fed processed (e.g., dry rolled).

目的研究饲粮中添加外源α-淀粉酶的大麦(MB)对育肥牛生长性能和甲烷(CH4)排放的影响。材料与方法选用40头初始体重为522±31.4 kg的杂交阉牛,采用完全随机区组设计。被BW阻挡的公牛被分配到2个围栏中的1个,每个围栏包含一个自动头室系统(GreenFeed;C-Lock公司,拉皮德城,SD)和带有Calan门的单独饲料仓(美国Calan,诺斯伍德,新罕布什尔州)。随后,试验动物被随机分配饲喂等氮、等能但含有0% MB (0MB)、10% MB (10MB)或20% MB (20MB)的育肥期饲粮。结果与讨论MB对DMI和ADG无影响(P≥0.20);但随着MB添加量的增加,饲料效率和DM消化率呈线性降低(P≤0.02)。此外,添加MB可导致二次响应(P = 0.05),其中添加MB可提高CH4产量(g /d CH4)。增加MB对CH4产率无影响(P≥0.13;g /kg DMI),但排放强度有线性增加的趋势(g /kg ADG;P = 0.09)。我们推测,DM消化率和饲料效率的下降是由于未加工饲粮导致的,因此需要进一步研究如何加工饲粮(如干滚)。

Objective

Our objective was to evaluate tissue residue levels, calculated NH3 gas emissions and live and carcass growth in finishing beef steers fed lubabegron (LB).

Materials and Methods

In Exp 1, 50 steers were fed ad libitum a diet containing LB at 1.54 or 5.53 mg/kg of DM for 14 d, followed by a voluntary removal duration of 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, or 8 d before slaughter. Nongastrointestinal tract (GI) tissues collected and analyzed were muscle, liver, tongue, heart, bone, bone marrow, and tendon. In Exp 2, 700 steers were supplemented with either a diet containing LB at 3.5 mg/kg of DM or a negative control for 56 d. Supplementation was followed by removal durations of 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 16 d before slaughter. At slaughter, a subset of steers (35; 5 per treatment) were selected to sample GI and non-GI tissues for LB residues, and the remaining animals were used to evaluate the live and carcass growth.

Results and Discussion

In Exp 1, all non-GI tract tissues were below the 3 μg/kg limit of quantification (LOQ), except for the tongue. At the greater supplementation level (5.53 mg/kg) tongue had residues of 3.80 and 2.08 μg/kg for removal durations 0 and 1 d, respectively. Within GI tissues, steers supplemented with the lower dose (1.54 mg/kg) had detectable residues within the reticulum (0–2 d), rumen (0–1 d), omasum (0–4 d), and abomasum (0–2 d). Steers supplemented with the higher dose (5.53 mg/kg), had detectable residues within the reticulum (0–4 d), rumen (0–2 d), omasum (0–6 d), small intestine (0–1d), and large intestine (0 d). In Exp 2, the LOQ for LB residues was 1 μg/kg, and residues were detectable in liver (0 d), muscle (0–2 d), rumen (0–4 d), reticulum (0–4 d), and omasum (0–16 d). Steers supplemented with LB had greater final BW (P < 0.001), ADG (P < 0.001), G:F (P< 0.001), hot carcass weight (P < 0.001), DP (P < 0.001), and rib-eye area (P < 0.001) than the negative control. Furthermore, steers fed LB exhibited reduced marbling score (P < 0.001) and YG (P < 0.001) compared with control steers. Calculated NH3 gas emissions were greater (P< 0.001) for control steers (6,204 g/head) compared with LB-supplemented steers (5,202 to 5,348 g/head).

Conclusions and Application

These results demonstrate that LB residue concentrations are affected by supplementation concentrations, tissue type, and duration of removal before slaughter. Furthermore, the LB supplementation results in greater red meat yield and decreased calculated NH3 gas emissions.

本研究的目的是评估饲喂润滑脂(LB)的育肥牛的组织残留水平,计算NH3气体排放以及活畜和胴体生长情况。材料与方法在试验1中,将50头阉牛自由饲喂饲粮,饲粮中LB的DM含量分别为1.54或5.53 mg/kg,饲喂14 d,屠宰前分别在0、1、2、4、6或8 d进行去除试验。收集和分析的非胃肠道组织包括肌肉、肝脏、舌头、心脏、骨骼、骨髓和肌腱。在试验2中,700头阉牛分别在56 d的饲粮中添加3.5 mg/kg DM的LB或阴性对照。在屠宰前,分别在饲粮中添加0、2、4、6、8和16 d去除LB。屠宰时,一小部分阉牛(35头;每处理5头)分别从胃肠道和非胃肠道组织取样LB残留,剩余动物用于活体和胴体生长评估。结果与讨论实验1中,除舌外,其余非胃肠道组织均低于3 μg/kg定量限。在较高添加水平(5.53 mg/kg)下,去除0 d和1 d后,舌部残留分别为3.80和2.08 μg/kg。在胃肠道组织,引导补充低剂量(1.54毫克/公斤)检测残留在网(0 - 2 d)、瘤胃(0 - 1 d),重瓣胃(0 - 4 d)和皱胃(0 - 2 d)。引导补充与高剂量(5.53毫克/公斤),有可检测残留在网(0 - 4 d),瘤胃(0 - 2 d),重瓣胃(- d),小肠(0-1d)和大肠(0 d)。在实验2中,磅残留的定量限为1μg / kg,和残留检测在肝(0 d),肌肉(0 - 2 d)、瘤胃(0 - 4 d),网肌(0-4 d)和瓣肌(0-16 d)。添加LB的阉牛最终体重(P <0.001), ADG (P <0.001), G:F (P<0.001),热胴体重(P <0.001), DP (P <0.001),肋眼面积(P <0.001),高于阴性对照。此外,饲喂LB的阉牛的大理石纹评分(P <0.001)和YG (P <0.001)。计算出的NH3气体排放量更大(P<0.001),对照组(6,204 g/头)与补充lb的牛(5,202至5,348 g/头)相比。这些结果表明,LB残留浓度受补充浓度、组织类型和屠宰前去除时间的影响。此外,添加LB可提高红肉产量,减少计算的NH3气体排放量。

Calculated NH<sub>3</sub> gas emissions were greater (<em>P</em>&lt; 0.001) for control steers (6,204 g/head) compared with LB-supplemented steers (5,202 to 5,348 g/head).</p></div><div><h3>Conclusions and Application</h3><p>These results demonstrate that LB residue concentrations are affected by supplementation concentrations, tissue type, and duration of removal before slaughter. Furthermore, the LB supplementation results in greater red meat yield and decreased calculated NH<sub>3</sub> gas emissions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8519,"journal":{"name":"Applied Animal Science","volume":"39 6","pages":"Pages 484-493"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590286523000733/pdf?md5=184049bab5f49536e1f38350799fb59f&pid=1-s2.0-S2590286523000733-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138466331","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
