Effect of physically effective fiber on animal growth performance, carcass characteristics, digestibility, and rumination in finishing beef cattle
Abstract The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the effects of altering dietary peNDF concentration by modifying forage particle size on digestibility, rumination, and performance of finishing beef steers. Forty crossbred beef steers (initial BW = 387 ± 38.2 kg) were blocked by BW and assigned to 10 pens with...
