Amino acid requirements of growing steers
Methionine and lysine requirements of growing steers were investigated. In preliminary work, steers were abomasally infused with graded levels (0, 100, 200 and 300 g/d) of casein or mixes of crystalline amino acids simulating the nonsulfur amino acid pattern of casein, both with and without 12 g/d …

Physiological effects of feeding high magnesium levels to steers
A 130-d study was conducted with 24 363kg steers allotted to four diets containing .3 (basal), 1.4, 2.5 and 3.7% Mg, dry basis. An attempt was made to feed cattle on all treatments equal amounts of the basal diet, but steers fed the two high levels refused some feed. Grab fecal samples were …

Live animal performance and carcass characteristics of bulls versus steers
… gain faster and more efficiently than comparable steers and that the bullock carcasses yield a greater percentage of retail cuts. Reports also indicated that the meat from young bulls was similar in palatability to meat from steers of similar age and breeding. The objectives of this study were to …

Effect of two finishing systems on claw characteristics in beef steers
… to the shape and balance of the foot in growing steers. The evaluated parameters included dorsal wall growth, abrasion, length and sole surface area. After animal harvest, the sole horn thickness was measured. Seventy-two yearling Angus-crossbred steers (mean body weight 378±6.2 kg) were allotted …

Plasma hormone concentrations and profiles in growing steers with different growth potentials
<p>Plasma hormone concentrations were measured in steers with different potentials for growth and body composition to help determine the physiological bases for these differences. In trial 1, four steers each of large, medium and small type were fed ad libitum a 70% concentrate diet, were housed …
