Zenobi, M. G., Lardner, H. A., Jefferson, P. G. and McKinnon, J. J. 2014. Blended by-product feed pellets for backgrounding cattle. Can. J. Anim. Sci. 94: 533–543. Two trials were conducted to evaluate the performance of cattle fed blended by-product pellets (BP) formulated to be high in starch (HS 45% DM) or fat (HF 8.5% DM) and low (LSP; 27% of CP DM) or high (HSP; 37% of CP DM) in soluble protein. In trial 1, 300 crossbred steers (320±21.6 kg, mean±SD) were assigned to one of 25 pens and fed one of five diets. The control diet consisted of 46.9% forage and 53.1% barley-based concentrate. The four treatments were 48.5% forage and 51.5% BP (DM). Diets were formulated to 1.63 and 1.02 Mcal kg−1 NEm and NEg, respectively (DM). In trial 2, 180 crossbred steers (326±20.3 kg) were assigned to one of 15 pens, each assigned to one of three treatments. The control was 54.3% forage and 45.7% concentrate, while the two HF BP treatments were 56.6% forage and 43.4% BP (DM). All diets were formulated to 1.57 and 0.97 Mcal kg−1 NEm and NEg, respectively (DM). In trial 1, no (P=0.36) effect of treatment was observed on average daily gain (ADG); however, dry matter intake (DMI) was reduced (P<0.01) with the HS BP relative to the control and HF BP. Gain:feed (G:F) was poorest (P<0.01) for the HF BP. In Trial 2, no effect of treatment was observed on ADG (P=0.80) or DMI (P=0.06); however, cattle fed the control diet had the highest (P<0.01) G:F. Relative to the control, the calculated dietary NEg content (Mcal kg−1 DM) was 8.0% lower (P<0.01) for the HF BP in Trial 1 and 6.7% lower (P<0.01) in Trial 2. No effect (P>0.05) of soluble crude protein was observed. The results indicate that BP can be a viable supplemental energy and protein source for growing cattle.

Anim。科学。 94:533-543。进行了两项试验,以评估饲喂混合副产品颗粒(BP)的牛的性能,该颗粒配制成高淀粉(HS 45%DM)或脂肪(HF 8.5%DM)和低(LSP; CP DM的27%或高(HSP;可溶性蛋白质中含有37%的CP DM)。在试验1中,将300只杂交阉牛(320±21.6kg,平均值±SD)分配给25只笔中的一只,并喂食五种饮食中的一种。对照饮食由46.9%的饲料和53.1%的基于大麦的浓缩物组成。四种处理是48.5%的饲料和51.5%的BP(DM)。将饮食配制成分别为1.63和1.02 Mcal kg -1 sup> NEm和NEg(DM)。在试验2中,将180只杂交阉牛(326±20.3kg)分配到15个围栏中的一个,每个围栏分配给三个处理中的一个。对照为54.3%的饲料和45.7%的浓缩物,而两种HF BP处理为56.6%的饲料和43.4%的BP(DM)。将所有饮食配制成分别为1.57和0.97 Mcal kg -1 sup> NEm和NEg(DM)。在试验1中,观察到平均日增重(ADG)没有(P = 0.36)治疗效果;然而,HS BP相对于对照和HF BP,干物质摄入量(DMI)降低(P <0.01)。增益:HF BP的饲料(G:F)最差(P <0.01)。在试验2中,未观察到治疗对ADG(P = 0.80)或DMI(P = 0.06)的影响;然而,饲喂对照饮食的牛最高(P <0.01)G:F。相对于对照,计算的膳食NEg含量(Mcal kg -1 sup> DM)在试验1中的HF BP降低了8.0%(P <0.01),在试验1中降低了6.7%(P <0.01)。试验2.未观察到可溶性粗蛋白的影响(P> 0.05)。结果表明,BP可以成为生长牛的可行的补充能量和蛋白质来源。
