When this switch in the diet is done rapidly, the pH (acid) of the rumen is disrupted, causing a condition called acidosis. This may be what many people refer to when claiming that feeding cattle corn makes them sick. This is something that cattle farmers try to avoid. When it does occ...
Eight lactating Holstein dairy cows were fed corn silage-based diets with or without whole cottonseed at 18.5% of the dietary dry matter. At 42 days postpartum, a pulse injection of 100mg glucose/kg body weight was given intravenously and plasma glucose concentration was monitored for 45min. ...
Complete mixed rations based on corn silage and corn grain were fed ad libitum. In Trial ... WE Wheeler,CH Noller - 《Journal of Dairy Science》 被引量: 49发表: 1976年 Reproductive performance of lactating dairy cows and heifers resynchronized for a second insemination with an intravaginal ...

An experiment was conducted in 3 consecutive yr with corn grown each year on a field from which silage was made of corn harvested at different dates before and after freezing. Yields of green and dry weight were recorded at each harvest. Individual whole plants and plant parts were evaluated ...
Limit-Feeding Cows in a Drylot Cody Wright, Extension beef specialist COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE & BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES / SOUTH DAKOTA STATE UNIVERSITY / USDA dlings, or corn gluten feed, will nearly eliminate starch from the diet without significantly sacrificing energy intake. Starch also can interfere...
Efficiency of limit-feeding a whole shelled corn-based diet as an alternative to a conventional forage-based diet for nonlactating dairy cattle was determined. Twelve nonlactating, multiparous Holstein cows (initial BW 642+/-50 kg) were used in a randomized complete block design. Nutrient digestib...
“We have been feeding deer all winter. Should we stop cold turkey, slowly reduce the amount of corn, or keep feeding as we have for the rest of the winter? We just want to do the right thing.” “I am sick. I had no idea we could be harming deer by feeding them. We mostly ...
We used four ruminally cannulated, multiparous Holstein cows (690 kg; 21 kg/d milk) in a 2-period crossover design to determine the impact of feeding a raw soybean hull-corn steep liquor pellet (SHSL) on induced subacute ruminal acidosis (SARA) in lactating cows. Cows were fed control ...
The primary objectives of our experiments were to assess the effects of feeding silage and grain prepared from transgenic corn on feed intake, milk production, and DM digestibility in lactating dairy cows. Transgenic corn hybrids were compared with silage and grain from their near-isogenic control ...
