Conference Paper 2000

The effect of abrupt and frequent changes in forage quality on nitrogen balance in crossbred steers fed napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum) and barley straw

Autor: Sanda, A. Romney, D.L. Tanner, J.C. Thorne, Peter J. Leaver, J.D.

The effects on crossbred steer liveweight gain of alternating the same quantities of Napier grass and barley straw at five day intervals over a 40 day period was studied (Sanda et al, 1999. These animals lost significantly more weight (p<0.05) than animals on one and ten day frequencies of alter...

Conference Paper 1998

The effects of feed nitrogen and polyphenol levels on the fate of ingested nitrogen in steers and their implications for nitrogen cycling in mixed farming systems

Autor: Delve, Robert J. Tanner, J.C. Kimani, S. Giller, Ken E. Cadisch, Georg Thorne, Peter J.

Due to inadequate feed supplies for livestock production, farmers throughout the tropics and sub-tropics are being encouraged to supplement low quality basal diets with leguminous forage and concentrates. The varying quality (e.g. nitrogen, lignin and polyphenol content) of these diets will influ...
