The effects were assessed of substituting half the total diet protein in solid form (soybean meal) with liquid form (soybean milk) at solid:liquid ratios of: 100.0:0% L; 87.5:12.5% L; 75.0:25.0% L. Twenty-four Holstein breed 60-d male calf steers were assigned to a randomized block design, with three concentrate (80%) diets and 20% coast-cross (Cynodon dactylon) hay, balanced for nitrogen and energy. In the diets with liquid parts, the intention was to keep the functional reflex of the esophageal groove throughout […]
