forage vs. grain (forage)
|
forage is high in NDF (greater than 35%), low in energy content, high in calcium content, low in phosphorous, carbonaceous if CP is lower than 10% or proteinaceous if CP is higher than 10% and has a high variation in nutrient content
|
forage vs. grain (grain)
|
grain is low in NDF (less than 35%), high in energy content, low in calcium content, high in phosphorous, carbonaceous if CP is lower than 20% or proteinaceous if CP is higher than 20% and has a low variation in nutrient content
|
Carbonaceous concentrates

lower than 35% NDF, lower than 20% CP
Includes: Cereal grains(corn, oats, barley, rye and wheat) Sorghum (milo, kafir) Milling By-Products (bran, middlings) and misc feeds (animal fat, bakery by-products)
|
Corn grain
|
-no limitations on its use
-only grain with B-carotene--> Vitamin A
-fed whole
-generally processed before feeding
-susceptible to mold damage
high in starch**
|
Sorghum (milo)
|
-40% grown in texas
-drought tolerant
-can be only grain source in diets
-must be processed to utilize
-used widely for swine because its similar to corn
**similar to corn but lower in fat, fiber and starch
|
Wheat
|
-not widely used $$, primarily for humans
-best protein quality of cereal grains
-only gain source if used for pigs, and only 50% for ruminants
-more fermentable starch then corn or milo (more likely to cause acidosis which will decrease milk fat)
|
Barley
|
-3rd most important grain
-grown in north and used in brewing
*higher fiber than corn/milo but lower energy*
|
Oats
|
-has hull weight
-"safe grain" for horses because its high in fiber
-limited used in pigs, more for horses and ruminants
*high crude fiber, lowest energy of all grains*
|
Gluten free
|
by products of corn and milo, have less energy than original grain
|
Middlings
|
by products from wheat and rye, moderate energy
|
Hominy feed
|
by product of only corn, only slightly less energy than corn, still high
|
grain screenings

-raw can inhibit digestion, …
|
Cottonseed Meal
|
-oil extracted from cottonseed
-lower protein than SBM(41%,low in lysine) but cheaper
-abundant protein source from the south
-high in fiber so lower energy for non ruminants
-has gossypol which can be toxic to pigs, ruminants less susceptible
-low in Ca, carotene and Vitamin D, HIGH…
|
Peanut Meal
|
-oil extracted from peanut kernels
- lower protein quality compared to SBM because less EAA (46%)
-best suited for ruminant feeds because of cost on AAs

Methods of utilzing forage crops
|
1. Pasture grazing systems
2. Hay
3. Direct-cut silage (green chop)
4. Silage
|
1. Pasture grazing systems
|
-select plants that are well adapted to climate and soil type and will provide available forage in multiple seasons of the year
-can be continuous, rotational, first-last, strip, limit or creep grazing (low to high utilization)
|
Rotational grazing
|
separate large pasture into small pads and roate when the forage is grazed down in one pad
*trick is knowing when to rotate, is labor intensive, and you must have water in each pad
|
First-last grazing
|
2 sets of rotational grazers, 1st with higher requirements(1st and 2nd calf females and BCS less than4), 2nd with lower requirements (5-8 years and BCS greater than 4)
|
Strip grazing
|
uses electric fence to move ever strip having an increase of pasture each time * highest utilization*
|
Limit grazing
|
high quality grass only grazed for a few hours, other pasture has lower quality and is used for the remaineder of the grazing, mature grass is not grazed in summer, saved for winter
|
Creep grazing
|
a type of limit grazing but the wires are high enough that calves can go under and graze both pastures at any time
|
Stocking rate
|
optimal range where the gain per animal and acre are the same, not over stocked or understocked
|
