Protein from pasture
… in seasonal dairying on ryegrass/white clover pastures in New Zealand would be satisfactory for protein extraction. Estimated recoverable protein yields for irrigated and non-irrlgated pasture, and lucerne, were 979, 675 and 660 kg/ha/yr, respectively. For integrated dairying plus protein …

Sensorial, cultural and volatile properties of dairy powders, yoghurt and butter from pasture and non-pasture cow diets
… salted butter using milk from cows outdoors on pasture-fed diets (such as ryegrass, ryegrass and white clover) and cows indoors on trial mixed rations. Cross cultural sensory analysis was also undertaken on skim milk powder from these diets in order to determine if consumers and trained …

Nutritional constraints to lamb growth at pasture
… digested in the rumen was similar for all pasture species (average, 0.56), although less digestible NDF was digested in the rumen of lambs grazing legumes (0.76) than in the rumen, of lambs grazing grasses (0.88). Substantial losses of dietary nitrogen occurred across the rumen, …

Temporal Nutrient Dynamics in Cool-Season Pasture
Understanding the nutrient dynamics of pastures is essential to their profitable and sustainable management. Tall fescue [Schendonorus phoenix (Scop.) Holub.] is the predominant forage species in Virginia pasturelands. Although tall fescue pasture is common, little research has attempted to …

The grazing habits of cattle on pasture
… A general appreciation of the value of pasture as a source of livestock feed, improvements in strains of grasses and legumes, and better knowledge of fertilizer usage have encouraged the increase in acreage of highly productive pastures. Well managed pastures are highly productive and …

Effects of stocking rate and supplementation on pasture utilization, cow performance, and rumen environment in a pasture-based and automatic milking system
… automatic milking systems (AMS) into Midwestern pasture-based systems has been suggested as an alternative low cost and labor efficient dairy system, but proper integration of this technology into a pasture-based dairy system is not well understood. The objective of this thesis was to determine …

Pasture Intake, Digestibility and Fecal Kinetics in Grazing Horses
Pasture intake of grazing livestock needs to be estimated to allow determination of energy and nutrient intakes. It is commonly estimated by difference, subtracting intakes of other feeds from estimated needs for dry matter or energy. However, these estimates are often erroneous, because they do …

The Effects of Multispecies Grazing on Pasture Management and Utilization
… between multiple grazing treatments and pasture utilization. The study was conducted for 60 days on the Western Kentucky University Farm in Bowling Green, KY. Cattle and goats have shown to differ in grazing preferences and to be economically important to the area. Grazing treatments …

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy applied to pasture, titanium, and bioplastics
… chemometric methods have been used on the pasture spectra to build calibration models. There are large deviations between spectra belonging to a single sample. This is due to surface inhomogeneity, particle size, lens-to-sample distance, temperature fluctuations between plasmas, and other …

Novel forage legumes for sustainable summer pasture mixtures in Saskatchewan
… randomly allocated to 1 of 4 replicated (n=4) pasture types, (i) ALF-RWR; (ii) ALF-HBG; (iii) SF-RWR; and (iv) SF-HBG mixtures. Forage DMY were greater (P = 0.01) for HBG + legume mixtures at WBDC than at AAFC SCRDC and similar (P > 0.05) for RWR+ legumes mixtures at both sites. Forage DMY …
