Comparison of three tall fescue-based stocker systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)A two-year study was conducted on tall fescue-based pastures to evaluate three approaches to rotationally stocking stocker calves. Within each year, two sets (a spring set and a fall set) of crossbred steers were stratified ... -
Dual use switchgrass :
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)Two studies were conducted on established switchgrass plots at Columbia and Mount Vernon, Missouri. The Columbia site was located on Mexico silt loam, and the Mount Vernon site on Viraton silt loam. The first study examined ... -
Effects of maturity and production stage on residual feed intake classification of beef cows
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)The objective of this research was to determine if the postweaning residual Feed intake (RFI) classification of beef heifers remain consistent as the animals matured, went through different stages of production and were ... -
Fatty acid variation between forage species and within populations and fatty acid content of beef finished on pasture with different forage species
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)We describe two experiments; the first experiment was conducted in a greenhouse where four forage species - orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.), tall fescue [Lollium arundinaceum (Schreb.) S.J. Darbysh = Schedonorus ... -
Impact of grazing stockpiled tall fescue of lactating beef cows
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)Two experiments are described, in which fall-calving cow-calf pairs grazed stockpiled tall fescue at three different endophyte infection levels (20, 51, and 89%) and four forage allowances (2.25, 3.00, 3.75, and 4.50% of ... -
Overseeding annual ryegrass and cereal rye into soybean for winter forage and as a cover crop for weed control and soil conservation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)Annual ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) and cereal rye (Secale cereale L.) are two forages that fit well into mixed row crop/livestock operations as they can be used both as a cover crop and as a source of winter pasture. ... -
Physiological responses of continental (summer-active) and mediterranean (summer-dormant) tall Fescue to cold stress and identification of underlying QTL for fall growth and winter survival
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)We describe three experiments; the first two experiments were conducted in a greenhouse and with the use of cold chambers. The first experiment determined the effect of endophyte (Neotyphodium ceonophialum) presence under ... -
Recommendations for tree establishment in tall fescue-based silvopasture
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)Silvopasture offers Midwest landowners the opportunity to plant trees in their pastures without significant loss of forage production. However, much of the pasture in the Midwest is dominated by tall fescue (Schedonorus ... -
Response of beef cattle selected for tolerance to tall fescue toxicosis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)Tall fescue (Schedonorus arundinaceus (Schreb.) Dumort.) infected with the endophytic fungus, Epichlooجا coenophiala [(Morgan-Jones & W. Gams) C.W. Bacon & Schardl, comb. nov.] produces ergot alkaloids that result in a ...
