Title: Evaluation of two-stage weaning and trace mineral injection on receiving cattle growth performance and behavior Document date: 2018_12_7
ID: ysoojuwt_33
Snippet: In summary, two-stage weaning decreased preweaning ADG and behavioral signs of stress at feedlot arrival, but had no effect on overall growth performance. In addition, ITM had no effect on calf BW or behavior, but increased overall DMI in two-stage weaned calves compared to abruptly weaned calves and tended to increase overall ADG regardless of weaning strategy. Further research evaluating the interaction of weaning strategy and ITM in stressed a.....
Document: In summary, two-stage weaning decreased preweaning ADG and behavioral signs of stress at feedlot arrival, but had no effect on overall growth performance. In addition, ITM had no effect on calf BW or behavior, but increased overall DMI in two-stage weaned calves compared to abruptly weaned calves and tended to increase overall ADG regardless of weaning strategy. Further research evaluating the interaction of weaning strategy and ITM in stressed at-risk cattle needs to be conducted before definitive conclusions can be drawn.
