The experiment was conducted with the objective to evaluate the parameters of dry matter intake, weight gain, feed conversion and energy efficiency of young feedlot steers, fed with two diets that included the AG-2006 sorghum silage harvested with different cutting heights: low cut (14 cm) and high cut (45 cm). Twelve Braford calves with an average age of seven months and average live weight of 208 kg, were used. The feedlot period was 126 days, divided in two period of […]
