摘要

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。

Can moderate-quality bermudagrass baleage be used to stretch wheat pasture?*

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.
